POSIX-future does not permit the Linux behavior.

I'm not seeing where POSIX-future (i.e.,http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=529 response 0001200 dated2012-04-19 15:18) prohibits the GNU/Linux behavior. If there is such aprohibition, isn't that more likely to be a bug in POSIX-future than inGNU/Linux?
