There's a manual/info book on the C library:
info libc
(which can also be typeset):
and at <http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904975/nfindex.html> is
the Base Definitions for POSIX, which is the standard that you should
actually be following when writing portable code :)
By no means everything is in there (e.g. you won't find JPEG readers or
graphical stuff in there), but the core stuff is.
