    POSIX.hdr/misc/wait 10
    Specification Base Definitions Issue 6
    Problem Summary ANSI.hdr/misc/stdlib and POSIX.hdr/misc/wait does not allow the
    inclusion of <sys/select.h>.
    Problem Text This problem is only regarding the complaint by the tests of the
    symbol pselect.

    According to Base Definitions, Issue 6, <stdlib.h> can make visible
    <sys/wait.h>
    which can make visible <sys/resource.h> which can make visible
    <sys/time.h>
    which can make visible <sys/select.h>.

    According to Base Definitions, Issue 6, <wait.h> can make visible
    <sys/resource.h> which can make visible <sys/time.h> which can make
    visible
    <sys/select.h>.

    Neither test is allowing the inclusion of <sys/time.h> in
    Test Output

    /tset/POSIX.hdr/misc/wait/T.wait 10 Failed

    Test Description:
    For POSIX90 and FIPS modes:
    When _POSIX_SOURCE is defined and no other feature test
    macros are
    defined, no other symbols than those defined or reserved by
    POSIX.1-1990 are made visible.
    For POSIX96 mode:
    When _POSIX_C_SOURCE is defined with the value 199506L and
    no
    other feature test macros except _POSIX_SOURCE are defined,
    no
    other symbols than those defined or reserved by POSIX.1-1996
    are
    made visible.
    For XPG4 mode:
    When _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
    XPG4
    are made visible.
    For UNIX98 mode:
    When _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined with the value 500 and no
    other
    feature test macros except _POSIX_SOURCE or
    _POSIX_C_SOURCE<=199506L are defined, no other symbols than
    those
    defined or reserved by XSH5 are made visible.
    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

    Review Response This is accepted as a fault in the test suite.

    Note that, contrary to the submitter's comment "This problem is only
    regarding the complaint by the tests of the symbol pselect", both of the
    symbols reported by the tests should be allowed to be visible.
