Bug 1219: snprintf requirement to fail when n > INT_MAX conflicts with C OPEN
http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1219

Action: Nick (on his return) to ask C committee for guidance, whether
an n > INT_MAX but less than SIZE_MAX, where SIZE_MAX is between,
inclusively, INT_MAX+1 and UINT_MAX (or higher on 64-bit architectures)
may be a preemptive reason to fail the interface, without examining
any other arguments.

Bug 1232: redirection to wildcard that match more than one word  Accepted as Marked
http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1232

This item is tagged for TC3-2008.

An interpretation is required.

Interpretation response:
The standard states the requirements for pathname expansion in
redirections, and conforming implementations must conform to this.
However, concerns have been raised about this which are being
referred to the sponsor.

Rationale:
The standard does not match some existing practice.

Notes to the Editor (not part of this interpretation):
Change:
    Pathname expansion shall not be performed on the word by a
    non-interactive shell; an interactive shell may perform it, but
    shall do so only when the expansion would result in one word.

to:
    Pathname expansion shall not be performed on the word by a
    non-interactive shell; an interactive shell may perform it, but
    if the expansion would result in more than one word it is
    unspecified whether the redirection proceeds without pathname
    expansion being performed or the redirection fails.

    <small>Note: a future version of this standard may require that
    the redirection fails in this case.</small>
