+ * src/touch.c (main): Fix POSIX-conformance bug: "touch --
+ MMDDhhmm file" must be treated like "touch MMDDhhmm file" when
+ conforming to pre-2001 POSIX.
+ * NEWS: Document this.
+ * tests/touch/obsolescent: Test for this bug. Also, set
+ _POSIX2_VERSION=199209 and POSIXLY_CORRECT=1 so that it's
+ a better test for obsolescent features.
+
* src/sort.c (main): Emulate Solaris 8 and 9 "sort -y", so that
"sort -y abc" is like "sort abc" whereas "sort -y 100" is like
plain "sort".
