Nope, still broken. Guess I'll have a look at configure.
The problem is just that configure sets HAVE_STRNDUP_DECL; if I change 
the relevant spot in the generated string.h, it gets past xstrndup.

However, now mountlist.c is bombing on strstr. Looking in string.h, I see:

#if 0
# if 0
#  undef strstr
#  define strstr rpl_strstr
extern char *strstr (char const *__haystack, char const *__needle);
# endif
#else
# undef strstr
# define strstr 
strstr_is_unportable__use_gnulib_module_strstr_for_portability
#endif

...so it seems strstr should be pulled, and isn't? Was this something 
that was just fixed, or is it new?
