            Bug ID: 104221
           Summary: strxfrm: not equivalent to strncpy
           Product: Documentation
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: man-pages
          Assignee: documentation_man-pages@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
          Reporter: fweimer@xxxxxxxxxx
        Regression: No

Version 3.81 says this:

“In the POSIX or C locales strxfrm() is equivalent to copying the string with
strncpy(3).”

This is a bit misleading because the behavior on truncation is unspecified for
strxfrm.
