I was thinking about this and the similar cases in sysconf.c. I think we
should do something better about them. The straightforward approach you've
taken is still scarily typo-prone. At the very least, we can use a macro
that voids actually typing the _POSIX_FOOBAR name type. Something even
better is more doable for the sysconf case than the confstr one. But we
should give it some more thought.
Thanks,
Roland
