 It is broken on SunOS due to this according to bulk builds:
 
 https://us-east.manta.joyent.com/pkgsrc/public/reports/upstream-trunk/20210622.1454/modular-xorg-server-1.20.11/build.log
 
 As such I think libnbcompat is not a feasible approach to
 solve this problem and we should back out the patches entirely and
 provide the package with a local copy of strnlen until we have a
 USE_FEATURES framework that can support better symbol granularity.
