This isn't POSIX 2013, which is supposed to go to the committee shortly.
It is the "errata" from POSIX 2008.
Now, I wonder if they'd be willing to allow distribution and provide man pages like they did for POSIX 2001/2004...
Of course, it's annoying that they don't really explain what those errata are, and also that the numbers seem to have no connection to each other:
SUSv4, _XOPEN_SOURCE=700, _POSIX_C_SOURCE=200809L (IIRC).
..I'm tempted to do a diff on the two...
