Government/Military	0 	 0.0%

Aardvark Bug Reports
--------------------
We picked up on the current aardvark
http://www.opengroup.org/austin/aardvark/latest/


XCU ERN 112 m4 Accept as marked below


 Replace this sentence at line 22446:

 With a single argument, that argument shall become the begin-quote
 string and the <newline> shall become the end-quote string.

 with this sentence:

 The behavior is unspecified if there is a single argument
 or either argument is null.

Note there may also be a problem with other macros if an argument is null,
these would need aardvarks submitted.



Next Steps
-----------
Andrew  will update the aardvark reports with the latest inbound
defect reports.
