   I don't think that that's true.  I know of at least three vendors who
   are at least striving to support ANSI C and POSIX.1 on the same
   system.  It can be done.  The headers get pretty ugly, though.

What about name space cleanliness at link time?  All the systems seem
to punt on this one, and it really indicates their lack of commitment.
