So it seems, freopen() is a perfectly valid standard C function.

Why not just replace the non-standard setlinebuf() call with the
standard  setvbuf(tracefile, NULL, _IOLBF, 0);  ? This appears to work
just as well on FreeBSD and is C99 compliant (no POSIX needed here).

The #define SMALL is only for disabling line editing and history (using
libedit). Setting the trace file line buffered is useful regardless of
that.
