    Test Suite VSC version 5.2.4
    Test Identification POSIX.annexA/c89/c89.ex 99
    Specification Shell and Utilities Issue 6
    Location in Spec c89 and "Utility Description Defaults" section of XSH5
    Problem Summary c89 -I directory when directory is a plain file
    Problem Text In the description for the c89 option -I it states:

    "-I directory

    Change the algorithm for searching for headers whose names are not
    absolute pathnames to look in the directory named by the directory
    pathname before looking in the usual places. ..."


    In the "Utility Description Defaults" section of XSH5
    under "CONSEQUENCES OF ERRORS" it says:

    The following apply to each utility, unless otherwise stated:

    [...]

    * If the requested action characterised by an option or
    option-argument cannot be performed, the utility will issue a
    diagnostic message to standard error and the exit status returned
    will be non-zero.

    The case where a plain file exists with the specified name
    is similar to the case of a non-existent directory.
    I.e. in both cases c89 can determine that a given header
    does not exist as "the_option_argument/header_name.h" and this
    could be considered a successful search with a "not found" outcome.
