You're not very good at reading my answers. 8-) In fact I'm likely to be convinced with reasonable argumentation.
To clarify "reasonable": - argumentation "according to LSB section x.y.z" or "this is simple, very useful and unlikely to break portability" usually works; - argumentation "this is the code I need" or "it works on my x.y.z platform" usually does not work.
