I haven't been able to find anywhere on the
net that defines POSIX standards for C.

I am interested about how various POSIX levels
are defined for include files & macro pre-processing.

To be exact, I am interested in the following line,

#if !defined (_POSIX_C_SOURCE) || _POSIX_C_SOURCE < 2

Now I am assuming that whatever this #ifdef's out
is available in posix level 2.

However, from what I have read
Notice below:

 * NOTICE: POSIX 1003.1c support
 * -----------------------------
 *
 * The POSIX 1003.1c-1995 standard was formally approved at the 
June
 * 1995 meeting of the IEEE Standards Board. The correct 
configuration
 * test macro for strictly conforming POSIX 1003.1c-1995 
applications is
 *
 *      #define _POSIX_C_SOURCE 199506L
 *

Thus, the above test obviously fails
whereas it should(?) succeed, as the level is
less than that of level 2? (ie: 1003.1c)

Does anyone have any idea about this & what
should be the correct behaviour/#ifdef test?

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks,
