The broken POSIX


If we have to support the "broken" POSIX, it should be turned off by
default. The default one should have the old behavior. And users
will get the new "broken" POSIX behavior only if they define something
like

#define _BROKEN_POSIX_SOURCE

I really hate user-visible changes like this.
