 Fix a bug in our confstr(3) implementation, it did not conform to POSIX

SUS != POSIX 1003.2

I was under the impression confstr(3) was baggage from POSIX 1003.2 ('92) and as such also ended up in SUS; I however have much like you no access to POSIX docs (or do I? I'll have to see what the uni has...). Do you suggest I change the comments and manpage to reflect SUSv3 rather than POSIX 1003.2 until it is ascertained to conform to POSIX 1003.2?
