"With the same proviso, all of them.  Of the many POSIX standards, only
POSIX.1-1990 and POSIX.2-1992 have usable validation test suites."

Fair enough, but I meant national or international standards when I asked
my question.

By the way, which Unices are 100% posix threads compliant (you ssaid you
knew).

How does the POSIX testing deal with the issue of test profiles, Dave,
(Emery), can you clarify that procedure?
