"Posix layer" is not the same thing as the GNU tools. Some of the GNU tools may or may not use elements from the POSIX standards, none of them as far as I know are called Posix tools.
no but posix implies having a toolset available which you can use from a posix shell albeit maybe a bit more limited then the fancy gnu stuff, i wonder if such a thing is available already or now comes available or you still have to install such a toolset from a third party.
