It would surprise me if there were ARC cases for these files. They're
just too old. They are part, really, of the C compiler - they're the
run-time start-up glue - and came from AT&T with Unix, before Sun
existed.
The cases that Jim cited (1995/049 and 2004/619) are related, but don't
really get at the core startup interfaces.
Maybe knowing more about why you wanted to know would help. I don't
believe there's really anything in there that should be directly
referenced by anyone.
