No such animal in ISO, Gaius.

In fact, there seemed to be definite bias against anything that smacked 
of POSIX.  (Hence, one of their blunders is not specifying the exact 
nature of the command arguments.  Some compilers chose the called 
command as the first argument, as in POSIX, whilst others chose the 
first passed argument as the first argument.)

By the way, how is the Solaris port going (he asked hopefully)?
