I can't really parse that sentence.  Using getline doesn't work on older
systems, because those older systems are compliant with the latest POSIX
standard?  Huh?  Wouldn't being compliant with the latest POSIX standard
be a good thing?

Could you add to the commit message a description of what actual problem
you faced that motivated you to do this change, maybe say which
particular system you had a problem with?
