Yeah. I'm overdue for another sync with upstream --- I'm dreading
that a little bit because they've been aggressively "modernizing"
their code and I fear it will be painful.
[ ... click click ... git pull ... ] It looks like the way that
reads now in upstream is
#if !HAVE_POSIX_DECLS
extern int getopt(int argc, char * const argv[],
const char * options);
extern int link(const char * target, const char * linkname);
extern char * optarg;
extern int optind;
#endif
We could probably assume that we'll treat their code as though
HAVE_POSIX_DECLS is true and so this whole stanza goes away.
But I'd just as soon not think about it until I have the energy
to do that sync. Unless somebody else is hot to do it (if so,
see the notes at src/timezone/README), let's leave this be
for now.
