/* The contents of this header file were originally standardized in
the Single Unix Specification, Issue 3 (1992). In Issue 4 (1994)
the header was marked as TO BE WITHDRAWN, and new applications
were encouraged to use <regex.h> instead. It was officially
withdrawn from the standard in Issue 6 (aka POSIX.1-2001).
