Yes. This is intentional. When @GNULIB_OPEN@ expands to 0, it means that the programmer has not asked for the function 'open' to be corrected by gnulib. Gnulib is, by design, an adaptable set of functionality. It is not all of POSIX. It is the subset of POSIX that you ask for. The reference to gnulib::open will fail in this case, telling the programmer that he needs to request the gnulib module 'open'. Bruno
