Look at the code.  Basically it tries every fix in the fixinclude script,
so it'll try both the irix and sunos blocks.

Instead of adding a new block, I recommend you change the xdr.h block to
iterate over the files that need fixing.  There should be sample code
elsewhere in fixincludes you can copy and modify as appropriate.
