These are missing:
rpc/auth_des.h rpc/auth.h rpc/auth_unix.h rpc/clnt.h rpc/des_crypt.h
rpc/key_prot.h rpc/pmap_clnt.h rpc/pmap_prot.h rpc/pmap_rmt.h rpc/rpc_des.h
rpc/rpc.h rpc/rpc_msg.h rpc/svc_auth.h rpcsvc/bootparam.h rpc/svc.h
rpcsvc/nis_callback.h rpcsvc/nis.h rpcsvc/nislib.h rpcsvc/nis_tags.h
rpcsvc/ypclnt.h rpcsvc/yp.h rpcsvc/yp_prot.h rpcsvc/ypupd.h rpc/types.h
rpc/xdr.h
also libtirpc built with glibc 2.14 ends up with few missing symbols
key_encryptsession_pk
key_gendes
getnetname
getpublickey
_des_crypt_call
so at this moment there is no usable rpc implementation when using glibc 2.14
