Andrew checked with The Open Group technical team and apparently
this is non trivial for the mirrored, load balancing setup we have
with AWS for the publications server. Therefore we have no plans
at the current time to make changes to the infrastructure.

On page 851 line 28924 section fgetc(), and
page 855 line 29054 section fgets(), and
page 859 line 29223 section fgetws(), and
page 945 line 32390 section fscanf(), change:
If a read error occurs, the error indicator for the stream shall
be set, ...
to:
If an error occurs, the error indicator for the stream shall
be set, ...
On page 857 line 29144 section fgetwc(), change:
If a read error occurs, the error indicator for the stream shall
be set, ...
to:
If an error other than an encoding error occurs, the error
indicator for the stream shall be set, ...

If an encoding error occurs, the error indicator for the stream
shall be set, ...
to:
If an encoding error occurs, [CX]the error indicator for the
stream shall be set,[/CX] ...
On page 858 line 29174 section fgetwc(), change RATIONALE from
"None" to:
The requirement to set the error indicator when an encoding
error occurs is shaded CX because this is not required by the
ISO C standard. However, the next revision of the ISO C standard
is expected to add this requirement.
On page 921 line 31501 section fread(), change:
The fread() function shall return the number of elements
successfully read, which shall be less than nitems only if a
read error or end-of-file is encountered. If size or nitems is
0, fread() shall return 0 and the contents of the array and the
state of the stream remain unchanged. Otherwise, if a read error
occurs, the error indicator for the stream shall be set, [CX]and
errno shall be set to indicate the error.[/CX]
