I'll have to scare up a work machine to fetch that from, since
apparently pubs.opengroup.org is not interested in serving content over
HTTP.  But that should be doable; work these days tends to inflict
recent Linux on me, and, as unpleasant as I find that for most
purposes, it does mean things like curl with HTTPS support.

Thank you!
