busybox generally follows a pretty simple flow: (1) is the behavior you're looking at explicitly documented by POSIX ? if yes, then do what POSIX says & you're done (2) is the behavior described as "implementation defined" by POSIX ? if yes, do whatever produces smaller code (3) is the behavior attempting to replicate another standard (e.g. GNU) ? is it behavior the standard explicitly documents ? if yes, do what the replicated standard does
otherwise, if it's an edge case no one cares about, stick to small code. -mike
