First, I believe that the POSIX standards do NOT cover the standard C 
functions; they simply refer to the ISO C standard for those. For 
POSIX-specific functions like fork, yes they should. See www.iso.ch for 
details on getting ISO standards. There is an ISO standard for POSIX; I think 
it came from committee SC22/WG15.
