consequently, if the dd specification is broken, then the POSIX standard is
broken, too.

This kind of condescending attitudes do not improve matters.

"We already told you"? Who is Eric Blake talking to? Nobody talked there about
coreutils 8.20 or 'dd status=none'. Paul Eggert kindly wrote about 'dd
status=noxfer'. Eric Blake can re-read the thread if he wants to, and if he
doesn't want to, at least he can stop talking people condescendingly after not
really reading the conversations.
