Subject: [Bug libc/14824] New: Functions removed from stdlib.h in 2008 wrongly disabled for POSIX-2001+XSI
Date: Fri, 09 Nov 2012 17:28:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-14824-131@http.sourceware.org/bugzilla/> (raw)
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14824
Bug #: 14824
Summary: Functions removed from stdlib.h in 2008 wrongly
disabled for POSIX-2001+XSI
Product: glibc
Version: 2.16
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: libc
AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
ReportedBy: jsm28@gcc.gnu.org
CC: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
Classification: Unclassified
The stdlib.h functions ecvt, fcvt, gcvt, mktemp were removed from stdlib.h in
the 2008 edition of POSIX; in 2001 they were present (when XSI extensions are
enabled) though marked LEGACY as an advance warning of removal. stdlib.h
wrongly disables them for __USE_XOPEN2K (compare to valloc, which was present
in UNIX98 and removed in the 2001 edition, so is correctly disabled for
__USE_XOPEN2K). This results in conformtest failures for these functions for
XOPEN2K.
