--- Comment #5 from Martin Sebor <msebor at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
I find the POSIX requirement to fail when n is greater than INT_MAX to be in
conflict with C.  I've submitted a defect to the Austin Group:

At the same time, the POSIX requirement makes sense to me since it makes the
function safer.  So I've also brought this up in WG14 to see if C would be
willing to adopt the POSIX requirement.
