  12. Lawrence said

  14. "ANSI C defines the ANSI standard library calls. While UNIX(tm) validation
  15. may require these that is down to the UNIX and from that the POSIX
  16. specification, not the ANSI standard: there is nothing in the ANSI standard
  17. that states the UNIX system interface must be one thing or another, rather
  18. it is the UNIX standards that define the UNIX system interface with
  19. reference to the ANSI C standard."
