    /tset/POSIX.hdr/misc/signal/T.signal 39 Failed

    Test Description:
    If _POSIX_SOURCE is defined and no other feature test macros are
    defined, no other symbols than those defined or reserved by POSIX.1
    are made visible; otherwise, if _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined and no other
    feature test macros except _POSIX_SOURCE, _POSIX_C_SOURCE=1 or
    _POSIX_C_SOURCE=2 are defined, no other symbols than those defined or
    reserved by the XPG are made visible.
    This test is not executed in XPG3 mode.
    Posix Ref: Component C Language Definitions Assertion 2.7.2-05(B)

    Test Strategy:
    FOR each unreserved struct/union member made visible by the header
    DEFINE a macro which will cause an error if not protected from
    expansion
    UNDEFINE those macros which correspond to allowed member names
    INCLUDE a copy of the header file modified to identify #defines
    FOR each unreserved symbol made visible by the header
    VERIFY that the symbol name is in a list of allowed names
