Stop talking about the "XDG" version of basename()
XDG refers to X Desktop Group, a former name for freedesktop.org. This group is responsible for specifications like basedirs, .desktop files and icon naming, but as far as I know, it has never tried to redefine basename(). I think these references were meant to say XPG (X/Open Portability Guide), a precursor of POSIX. POSIX is better-known and less easily confused with XDG, and is how the basename(3) man page describes the libgen.h version of basename(). The other version of basename() is glibc-specific and is described in basename(3) as "the GNU version"; specifically mention that version, to disambiguate.
