    Problem Summary socket #86 does not allow SCM_ prefix macros in sys/socket.h
    Problem Text From the online version of the SUSv2 specification,
    http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xns/namespace.html:

    If any header in the following table is included, macros with the
    prefixes
    shown may be defined. After the last inclusion of a given header, an
    application may use identifiers with the corresponding prefixes for
    its own
    purpose, provided their use is preceded by an #undef of the
    corresponding
    macro.

    Header Prefix
    <netinet/in.h> IMPLINK_, IN_, INADDR_, IP_, IPPORT_, IPPROTO_, SOCK_
    <sys/socket.h> AF_, CMSG_, MSG_, PF_, SCM_, SHUT_, SO
    <xti.h> OPT_, T_, XTI_

    For previous problem report sent on this issue, the reply was:

    Neither XSH5 nor XNS5 reserves the prefix SCM_ for <sys/socket.h>,
    and therefore the test is right to report that SCM_UCRED is not
    allowed to be visible when _XOPEN_SOURCE is 500.

    This is not correct. The section of the standard referenced above is
    clear in allowing macros beginning with SCM_.

    Similiar wording for this part of the standard appears in the SUSv3
    edition of XSH6, page 18, line 693.
    Test Output
    ****************************************************************************************************************
    /tset/CAPI.hdr/misc/socket/T.socket 86 Failed

    Test Description:
    Base Required Conformance
    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.
    For UNIX03 mode:
    When _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined with the value 600 and no other
    feature test macros except _POSIX_C_SOURCE<=200112L are defined,
    no other symbols than those defined or reserved by POSIX.1-
    2001/XSH6 (including the XSI option) are made visible.

    Review Recommendation Test Suite Deficiency (TSD)
    Review Response The submitter is right to point out that the TSMA's comment in PR2405
    was incorrect. The TSMA was misled by the <sys/socket.h> entry in the
    table of reserved prefixes in XSH5, which specifies the reserved
    prefixes for macros defined in that header as AF_ MSG_ PF_ SO. This
    appears to be a defect in XSH5 - it should not list <sys/socket.h> in
    the table at all, since the header is defined in XNS5 not in XSH5.
