MFC: Add memrchr(3).
I think this is not very good idea to MFC that into stable releases 6.x
and 7.x. The reason is that configure scripts for some packages might
detect up this API and enable it. Which means that some binary-only
packages build for say 6.4 won't work on 6.3 and down. AFAIK, both
forward and backward compatibility is required (or at least desired?)
for stable branches.
While it's "nice-to-have" feature, I see no pressing need to MFC this
interface.
