All of these are standard library functions and names, present in most
current (and not-so-current) Unix environments. In fact, these were 
introduced in BSD 4.2 which was released over 20 years ago (1983, to
be exact).

I'm sorry, but that is one environment where you'll have to use a
different client package.
