I'm afraid this is backwards. This POSIX+XSI requirement constrains
applications, not implemen

Bash doesn't claim conformance to XSI, so that's OK as far as Bash is
concerned. Autoconf (and I assume Squid) is supposed be portable to
all POSIX hosts, not merely POS

But note that bash interprets -n as an option, which is not compliant with
XSI.

I'm a bit confused by the results I'm seeing with a pipeline to a
group. I was trying to parse a text file in such a way as the first n
lines are passed straight through, and then a sed script is applied to
the rest. I thought I could do that with something like this:
cat file | ( head --lin

Might I put forth a suggestion?
I would like to suggest that the "0" be required after a
"\" when expanding octal or hex values.
It would be consistent to allow hex values by using
"\0xHH", but it is confusingto POSIX compatible scripts
for "\1" to be accepted as an octal sequence.
Perhaps the
