thanks for your feedback. I can only define POSIX.1-200{1,8} or -susv4. So what
do you think about the following STANDARDS section?

For the options that are non-existing I could correct them to -2001 and mention
also -susv4.

STANDARDS
     With the exception of options -g, -n and -o, the ls utility conforms to
     IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (“POSIX.1”) and Version 4 of the Single UNIX
     Specification (“SUSv4”).  The options -B, -D, -G, -I, -T, -U, -W, -Z, -b,
     -h, -w, -y and -, are compatible extensions not defined in IEEE Std
     1003.1-2001 (“POSIX.1”).
