Note that I in 8970567 explicitly asked for which functions that would be removed elsewhere. You responded with chmod, chown, exec, crypt, sleep, abs, acos, ceil.

note one thing - I never said they would ONLY be in the POSIX module. I think I've said it several times that they would be aliased from other places (I mentioned the top-level and other places too). If you'd feel better, copy abs/ceil anywhere you want and alias it in the POSIX module - I really don't care and the exact placement wasn't at all the subject of the idea. The idea was to create a clean namespace partitioning that makes it easy for people to find the functions they might need and which might be defined in this or that standard.
