Yes.
1003.6 is security, which has been renumbered to 1003.1e (and, I believe, 1003.2c).
Which brings up a question for the linux-privs list: why are you still calling it POSIX.6? IMHO it would be better to call it POSIX.1e or 1003.1e or something, and it would be better to change the name _before_ releasing a patch to the public.
