The functions encrypt, setkey, encrypt_r, setkey_r, cbc_crypt,
ecb_crypt, and des_setparity should not be used in new programs,
because they use the DES block cipher, which is unacceptably weak by
modern standards. Demote all of them to compatibility symbols, and
remove their prototypes from installed headers. cbc_crypt, ecb_crypt,
and des_setparity were already compat symbols when glibc was
configured with --disable-obsolete-rpc.
POSIX requires encrypt and setkey to be available when _XOPEN_CRYPT
is defined, so this change also removes the definition of X_OPEN_CRYPT
from <unistd.h>.
The entire "DES Encryption" section is dropped from the manual, as is
the mention of AUTH_DES and FIPS 140-2 in the introduction to
crypt.texi. The documentation of 'memfrob' cross-referenced the DES
Encryption section, which is replaced by a hyperlink to libgcrypt, and
while I was in there I spruced up the actual documentation of
'memfrob' and 'strfry' a little. It's still fairly jokey, because
those functions _are_ jokes, but they do also have real use cases, so
people trying to use them for real should have all the information
they need.
DES-based authentication for Sun RPC is also insecure and should be
deprecated or even removed, but maybe that can be left as TI-RPC's
problem.
Every file that uses libc_hidden_nolink_sunrpc or
libnsl_hidden_nolink_def needs to include shlib-compat.h. Currently,
most of them are getting it via stdio.h, because libio.h refers to
SHLIB_COMPAT when _LIBC is defined, so it includes shlib-compat.h. My
experimental patch to not install libio.h breaks that chain; stdio.h
no longer pulls in libio.h even for internal users.
Accordingly, this patch adds #include <shlib-compat.h> to many files
in sunrpc/ and nis/. There are also a small number of really obvious
fixups to includes that caught my eye while proofreading the patch -
not including headers twice in a row, not worrying about portability
to Ultrix anymore, sort of thing.

New configure option --enable-obsolete-rpc makes the deprecated RPC
headers and functions available at compile time as they were before
version 2.14. This option will be removed at some time in the future
after the TI-RPC library becomes fully sufficient for the needs of
existing applications.
