LGTM.

Regarding /etc/rpc and (rpc/)netdb.h, does your software (or TIRPC
proper) include an implementation of getrpcby(name|number|ent)?  With
or without nsswitch.conf support?  I see no particular harm in keeping
these around in libc even if we do ever get to being able to *remove*
the rest of Sun RPC, but since they're not of interest to any program
that doesn't use Sun RPC it would be cleaner if we could get rid of
them too.
