The "all non-glibc platforms" is what was open-ended (because it precludes
the idea that someone else will implement it).

Personally, I'm okay with "is missing on many platforms", followed by the
list (which we can then tweak over time to list the last known buggy
versions as other implementations start to add POSIX 2008 compliance).  So
I think Bruno's patch was right, and there is no need to make a pass
through just for rewording it again.
