           Summary: fmemopen disobeys POSIX regarding 'b' flag
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.12
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
        AssignedTo: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
        ReportedBy: eblake@redhat.com


POSIX requires that the 'b' flag of fmemopen have no effect.  But the
resolution to bug 6544 commandeered the 'b' flag to make fmemopen disobey
POSIX.  Please use a different flag than 'b', or get POSIX changed to leave the
behavior of fmemopen and 'b' unspecified.
