I don't think anybody uses this functions. They are mostly used to
configure the NIS+ Server, but we have no rpc.nisd for Linux in
the moment. The patches looks Ok.

I'm working on this, but it is not easy for example to find a
single strdup which is not freed. mtrace is no help, it only
tells you, there is a memory leak, but not where. In some cases I'm
even not sure if it is the NIS+ code or the sunrpc code.

Linux is like a Vorlon.  It is incredibly powerful, gives terse,
cryptic answers and has a lot of things going on in the background.
