OK, I did it as a merge.  There was a strange conflict in modules/inttypes
wherein Makefile.am stuff added to libposix branch conflicted with empty
text in master.  My resolution was to leave it in.  I've pushed this,
so topic/libposix should now be current with master.  It builds, checks and
installs on x86-64 Linux.

Since I find it easier to manage temporary release files on sourceforge:

http://autogen.sourceforge.net/data/libposix-0.0.5276-10c1e.tar.gz

and I have forgotten why GIT tends to hang up without telling you why:

$ git push
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

so I haven't pushed the 180 commit merge.....
