+ * NEWS: "tail" now handles obscure POSIX 1003.2-1992 cases better.
+ * src/tail.c (parse_obsolete_option): Renamed from
+ parse_obsolescent_option, since the options are obsolete now.
+ Remove bool *arg; just exit if there's an error. Revamp to follow
+ POSIX 1003.2-1992 more precisely, to handle cases like "tail -
+ file" and "tail -10 -- file" correctly when we are conforming to
+ the older standard.
+ (main): Adjust to this change.
+ * tests/tail/Test.pm (test_vector): minus-* requires
+ _POSIX2_VERSION=199209 now, to work correctly if there is
+ an input file. err-1 and err-3 no longer errors if there
+ is another file.

* src/test.c (usage): Document -r, -w, -x more carefully.
