You could try raising an issue with the Austin group; not sure how far it would get though, since POSIX has been using this term for a long time now. However, I do agree with the point that there is ambiguity here, and I've applied a slightly modified version of your patch. I've also made a similar change in the following pages: getdate.3 strptime.3 locale.5 Thanks for the report.
