That was not my intent.  I thought to point of difference was whether an 
experienced programmer while not intimately familiar with the standard 
was competent to implement all or part of the standard library.

If not the standard library, then what?

I don't agree that it is glib.  As professional programmers, we are 
given complex requirements to implement every day.  What makes the C (or 
C++) standard special?
