   but new programs cannot be linked with the routines in libc anymore.
   Programs in need of RPC functionality must be linked against TI-RPC.

+  programs using RPC functions without referencing the TI-RPC library, the
+  removal of the RPC headers from the glibc headers, and the lack of
+  symbols defined in <rpc/netdb.h> when <netdb.h> is installed.
