IIRC, the reason why we keep it 0 is because we haven't implementer timer_create() and friends yet. > According to the developers having _POSIX_TIMERS equal to zero while the > other two are defined is not correct. Actually yes, see susv3: “ If the symbolic constant _POSIX_MONOTONIC_CLOCK is defined, then the symbolic constant _POSIX_TIMERS shall also be defined by the implementation to have the value 200112L. If the symbolic constant _POSIX_CLOCK_SELECTION is defined, then the symbolic constant _POSIX_TIMERS shall also be defined by the implementation to have the value 200112L. ” > > since clock selection instrinsically depends on timers.
