I'm not overexagerating, the question:

needs this answer.
You indeed answered the question, but my point is the answer could just as
well have been "none", since many software is correctly functioning with
non language specific implementations of these procedures. Wether or not
language specific code has to be used depends on the desired functionality
of the software. I.e. a Word processor will use language specific codes, a
Unix command line text processing utility uses language independend code.
