In any case, read() is just an example, the same kind of

Per,
Just an observation, based on some years of experience on the
implementation side of things like this.
You are likely to get a better response if you stop trying to play the
heavy. You are in no position to, and will not get better results by
wielding the UNIX03 spec as though it was a weapon.
Darwin is "compliant" in the legal sense, and ranting about how you
believe otherwise is not useful or relevant, and more importantly will
not help your cause.
If you want Apple to devote developer resources to fixing *your*
problem, you need to demonstrate why the current behaviour of the
system hurts you as a developer. And you need to do this in your bug
report, not by grandstanding here in this thread.
