So the _GNU_SOURCE thing is just plain wrong. Quit trying to rename the OS. Since there are so many standards to choose from, putting all features into the default would be most obvious. Else what, pure C89 maybe? Dang new-fangled standards might break something. Normal UNIX systems don't make developers jump through hoops to get access to stuff; they instead provide clean namespaces upon request. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
