No, the value 4 is actually the right one.  At first look I had also thought 
that it needed to be 500, but it originated in issue 4 as an X/OPEN UNIX 
extension (see 
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/random.html), and was 
moved to BASE in issue 5.  features.h has, in part
#elif (_XOPEN_SOURCE - 0) >= 500
#define __XSI_VISIBLE           500
#elif defined(_XOPEN_SOURCE) && defined(_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED)
#define __XSI_VISIBLE           4
I did not directly check the _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED, but it sounds right, so 4 
does look right.
