Subject: Re:  adjtime() does not update oldelta if delta is NULL

I explained a way in which I believe the glibc implementation of adjtime() 
differed from the 'info' description of adjtime().  That difference is 
entirely a glibc issue.

I expected you would say one of the following:

a) the description under 'info adjtime' is incorrect;

b) the behavior of 'info adjtime' is incorrect -- i.e., it does 
   not conform to the description in 'info adjtime'; or

c) I am wrong in perceiving there is a problem here -- i.e., the
   documented and actual behaviour do not conflict.

Which is it?  I am not clear from your response.

I think that b) holds.  And as I suggested already, I think the cause is a 
kernel issue.  If you agree that b) holds, I'm happy to push the issue 
with kernel folks.  But it is not clear from your response: do you agree 
that b) holds?
