Here is the actual xdr_char function from the SUNRPC 4.0 distribution:

/*
 * XDR a char
 */
bool_t
xdr_char(xdrs, cp)
	XDR *xdrs;
	char *cp;
{
	int i;

	i = (*cp);
	if (!xdr_int(xdrs, &i)) {
		return (FALSE);
	}
	*cp = i;
	return (TRUE);
}

The entire (source) of 4.0 is or soon will be available for ftp from
titan.rice.edu (and others no doubt.)

Mike
