Exactly, and the reason I wouldn't trust any GNU thing about conformance
to standards is the last sentence in the documentation:
| We recommend, rather, that users take advantage of the

The effect of this is that people are locked into using free software.
(Only half a smiley on that one. Flames to /dev/null.)
