As far as I know the behavior of the utmpx functions are not defined by
POSIX either.

http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009696899/functions/endutxent.html

And on that page utmpx is marked as an XSI extension. To my understanding
those are optional and not required to be implemented in POSIX-compliant
software.

The situation is more complicated than that, but that's not really my
point.  They have a defined behavior; THAT is my point.

And if every OTHER Unix implements these functions, what does that
really tell you?
