Hi!
I'm working on documenting the recent API change of strchr(3) et al.
to adapt to C23. While doing that, I've realized that the related APIs
that are not standardized by ISO C, such as memrchr(3), have not been
changed consistently with their relatives. Has this been discussed?
I think the inconsistency might be dangerous. Should we change the
other string functions accordingly?
Have a lovely day!
Alex
