Thanks.  AAB_sun_memcpy looks like another fix that could be removed, as 
Sun OS 4.x support was obsoleted in GCC 3.3.  There are quite a lot of 
fixes whose descriptions suggest they are only relevant on systems no 
longer supported, plus a few apparently only relevant to systems such as 
VxWorks where fixincludes is disabled in mkfixinc.sh.  I only looked for 
and removed those for the systems I was removing support for now, not 
those for systems for which support was removed long ago.  And what's the 
idea of all the fixes in inclhack.def under conditionals such as #ifdef 
SVR4?  As far as I can see none of them actually get through to fixincl.x, 
so there doesn't seem much point in keeping them around.
