>Description:
POSIX.1-2001 (and probably POSIX.2-1992) specifies the following option

NetBSD's ps doesn't support this.

>How-To-Repeat:
$ ps -A
ps: unknown option -- A
usage:  ps [-acCehjKlmrSTuvwx] [-O|o fmt] [-p pid] [-t tty]
           [-M core] [-N system] [-W swap] [-U username]
        ps [-L]
