In case anyone  else is interested,  I received a  work-around for  this
problem in my e-mail (thanks to steven!rob).

On an Apollo, you can use the "esa" Aegis command to obtain the  runtime
address of any C library function.  Just type:

	$ esa fcntl

Once, you have the address, you can assign it to a pointer to a function
in the code and away you go!
