POSIX.1e is described in IEEE POSIX.1e draft 17.
Discussion of the draft

HISTORY
Support for Mandatory Access Control was introduced in
Fx 5.0
as part of the
TrustedBSD
Project.
BUGS
POSIX.1e specifies that
mac_free ();
will be used to free text strings created using
mac_to_text3.
Because
Vt mac_t
is a complex structure in the
TrustedBSD
implementation,
mac_free ();
is specific to that type, and must not be used to free the character
strings returned from
mac_to_text (.);
Doing so may result in undefined behavior,
including application failure.
