I just fell upon a case where implementations seem to differ on what to do. The question is how to interpret a format directive in which the last parameter is followed by a comma.
I'm willing to report those divergences to the respective implementations, but the problem is that I don't really know what to report :-) Who's right? No matter how I read the spec, I cannot make a decision and it seems to me that this is an unspecified corner case.
One thing you could do is to add a note to this page:
http://www.cliki.net/Proposed%20ANSI%20Revisions%20and%20Clarifications
Even if you don't have a strong opinion on what the spec should say, you could note that it is underspecified.
