The SunOS "recommended" patch set doesn't add them; I have their
latest "jumbo libc" installed.  It is possible that there is another
patch around that does, but since it wouldn't really be a bug fix,
Sun may not have bothered to do it.  It is possible to add routines
to the standard libraries, if you are careful.  Perhaps that is
what the systems that had no problem did.  I have seen a number of
other packages detect the presence or absence of routines such as
strtoul/memmove at configure time, and add in their own private
replacement routines.  I will probably do a quick hack like that in
order to get it to build for now.
