Interpretation response
------------------------
The standard is unclear on this issue, and no conformance distinction can be made between alternative implementations based on this. This is being referred to the sponsor.

Rationale:
-------------
None.

Notes to the Editor (not part of this interpretation):
-------------------------------------------------------
Change the type of the sem_num member of the sembuf structure in the description of semop() to "unsigned short"

At page 1840 line 58804 (EFBIG) delete "is less than 0 or".
