Which functions were missing?  It's worth noting that you _HAVE_ to include
EXEC_AOUT, or else you can't run any programs; I should note that in
the config files.  (hp300 doesn't have std.hp300 because config.old
doesn't support the "include" directive; if someone wants to add support
for that, please get in touch with me).

You may want to read the options(4) manual page.
