IMHO, it is not. Afterall, it is three simple functions. It is better
to provide these functions if the system does not have it. The
replacements will get compiled in if configure does not find the
appropriate functions in the system. This way, perhaps gnucash will
compile with MIPSPro under IRIX (though it's been a while since I
tried).

I have been meaning to write them up and post a patch to you guys, but
other things keep intruding. I will try to get that done before
mid-week, and hopefully that'll take care of this particular problem.

Cheers,
Amitha.
