[Bug libc/3746] exit violates POSIX on seekable stdin


------- Additional Comments From ebb9 at byu dot net  2006-12-18 20:38 -------
Please give me an example of a program that would be broken if actions 
equivalent to fclose(stdin) were implicitly performed in exit() after all atexit
() handlers have completed as POSIX currently requires, and that cannot be 
fixed by recompiling that program to use _exit() instead.  With such a program 
identified, I would be glad to use that example to help persuade the Austin 
group to reword the requirements in such a way that the current glibc behavior 
would be compliant, where it currently is not.  If you can't do that, then I 
can't see why you keep closing this report as invalid, since it really IS a 
POSIX compliance bug, whether you plan on fixing it or not.
