I was just rereading ANSI C X3J11 and noticed that strftime and mktime are in there. Since POSIX is a superset (by definition) of ANSI C,

I should mention that even though X3J11 isn't final, and POSIX is co-operating strongly with (but not subservient to) X3J11, I wish to alter my ballot to support whatever is in X3J11, since it is or will be (it seems) the standard issued first (of the two).
