And, whereas the RPC symbols are still present (as compat symbols or 
normal symbols depending on configure options) in glibc ports postdating 
their deprecation, normal cases of deprecated symbols such as these won't 
be.  So the test needs to be disabled in some way for ports with least 
symbol version 2.20 or later, if the symbols are deprecated for 2.20.
