This is interesting. I read this book when it first came
out. At that time I don't believe much of the standard
had been implemented in the Linux kernel. How much is
implemented now? 

For example, from the book "CLOCK_REALTIME exists on all
Posix.4 conformant systems...", but I can find no mention
of it in any header files.
