"The handful of references to -susv2 in
lib/libpthread could be replaced with references to ISO 1003.1?"

Wouldn't it be ISO 9945? (IEEE 1003 I think that you're thinking of)

Almost certainly not.  POSIX was only a subset of SUS.  The two were
merged in v6 with the X/Open System Interfaces becoming an extension
to POSIX.  Some of those interfaces became standard POSIX interfaces
in later revisions.
