WG2 will have one, though so far I have not been able to muster the stamina
to construct such a thing.  The WG ruled out a complete Posix/SUS binding
(1118 functions), so it's a question of being selective, and I can't say
I have found a principled way to be selective about it.  The detailed-comparison
approach has so far not been fruitful for me either.

Recommendations and help are solicited.
