Standard IO



As part of the verification of the Specification, I'm trying to build a
real application against the lsbdev package (I'm using the X Windows System).

Something I hit right off is that stdout & stderr aren't found. This would
be becasue they have been excluded, but I guess we need to question this.

stdin/stdout/stderr were excluded because they appeared to have been mangled
by glibc in someway. It's been a while since we covered those, but I think
there was some issue of the definitions having changed between version as well.

I mention that it's been a while because I don't remember the details, and
wish to just ask instead, is this correct? Are std* simple FILE * data
variables, or are they implemented differently?

Can someone familiar with glibc shed soem light on this?
