XSH ERN 15
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Add the number 10 in the requirements column for all 5 ADV names in the
table on lines 12861-12865. After line 12893, add:
10. If path or fildes does not refer to a regular file, it is
implementation defined whether an implementation supports an
association of the variable name with the specified file. If
an implementation supports such an association for other than
a regular file, the value returned is implementation defined.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note that it was the intention of .1d that these variables only apply to
regular files, but the above requirement allows that an implementation
may choose to implement the advisory semantics on other file types unique
to that implementation (e.g. a character special device.) Frank
