You should never add a symbol to the conform/ expectations unless it is 
actually defined by a released standard.  In a case like this, of a symbol 
intended to be added in a future version, it should not be in the conform/ 
data, and should be conditioned on __USE_GNU in the headers.

Note that http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1044 has the issue8 tag, 
meaning it's for the next major revision of POSIX, not a bug fix for a TC 
for the current revision.
