Quoting a discussion in comp.unix.shell:
Keith Thompson:
> The enhancement request was submitted in 2011. The resolution is
> "Accepted As Marked" and the status is "Applied", so I'm not entirely
> sure what's going on. But in any case, The Open Group Base
> Specifications Issue 7, 2018 edition doesn't mention "-E".
Geoff Clare:
> "Applied" means the edits have been made in the (troff) source of SUS.
> In this specific case the edit was applied long enough ago that it
> was included in the latest draft (2.1) of the next revision (Issue 8)
> that was made available to reviewers in August 2021.
