Not a complete one that I'm aware of, no, although some pieces exist at
and around http://www.cs.vsb.cz/grygarek/tuox/sources/lib/ansi/Draft_g.txt

I eventually found the seek/tell rule in a book errata at
http://herd.plethora.net/~seebs/c/c_tcr.html then confirmed the standard
and section numbers with the "Normative Changes to ISO/IEC 9899:1990"
document at http://www.lysator.liu.se/c/tc1.html

I can't remember exactly what I googled for to find those documents (and
the query has already fallen off the end of my Google Toolbar's search
history - I think I use Google too much!  8-)
