Hello,
some notes about NetBSD libc:
it supports nsswitch for a long time, see here:

Dynamically loaded NSS modules are not supported.

a NetBSD 1.6 libc. They

And, if there are things like funopen(), why do Gnome hackers invent

just fine.
FWIW, i just ran man funopen on my netbsd box and it says:

Hello,
I am trying to study the various functionalities
supported by glibc Vs presence or absence of those
features in BSD libc.
This information here is w.r.t BSD libc which is
supplied with FreeBSD4.6(on intel)
i would like to know if i am missing something or some
