That would only seem relevant to the _XOPEN_CRYPT value in future POSIX 
modes, not current ones.

The conform/ data is in any case meant to correspond to the standard 
versions in question (plus defect corrections from TCs etc., not plus 
feature changes from other revisions to the standard).  Intentionally 
unsupported features are listed in that data with appropriate XFAILs (see 
e.g. those for varargs.h in conform/Makefile).
