Symptoms:

	asa(1) default behaviour is not XPG4 compliant

	PHCO_16205:
	asa(1) inserts extra lines. No relations with PHCO_12558
	patch

	PHCO_12558:
	asa(1) generates an extra line for every input file.

Defect Description:
	PHCO_21104:
	The default behaviour of asa(1) doesn't conforms
	to XPG4 standards,like in the case of "0","1",
	and "+" control characters. However, asa(1) conforms
	to XPG4 standards for the above control characters
	when UNIX95 flag is set.

	Resolution:
	When asa(1) invoked with new option "-u", it will
	conforms to XPG4 standards even if UNIX95 flag
	is not set.

	PHCO_16205:
	With UNIX95 flag not set asa(1) was putting two
	new lines for every space character.

	PHCO_12558:
	Upon executing asa, a newline is added at the end of
	the output for a given input file.
