I believe it is the same in all of the versions of 14652 and also the
ISO 9945 POSIX standards. The text of the final TR 14652 is available at:
http://www.dkuug.dk/JTC1/SC22/WG20/docs/n972-14652ft.pdf
The draft of 14652 that I believe Ulrich implemented is available at
http://www.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc22/open/n2638/
The current ISO POSIX standard is available from
http://www.unix-systems.org/version3/ (free of charge but you need to
supply some personal information).
