POSIX itself specifies features macros which you may define to compile
your source code in a strict POSIX environment.  These are
_POSIX_SOURCE and _POSIX_C_SOURCE.  These affect the header files
rather than the libraries.  To get a strict POSIX compiler, use those
in conjunction with -ansi or -std.
