Those functions (as you can tell from the manpage) are part of the BSD
compatability library (-lucb), and are not automatically supplied if
you just link with the regular solaris C library. Be cautious if you
do use libucb, since it interacts very badly with libc sometimes.

True, but in this case, it's Solaris that's being revisionist by
ditching the traditional Berkeley stuff.
