Ah; though I don't have access to a Unix-ish OS that doesn't have
bzero() (Solaris, HP-UX, Linux, FreeBSD).

Hm... looks like AIX doesn't, at least given what I can divine from
Google.  And IRIX needs a #include <bstring.h>.

Some of the man pages describe bzero() as deprecated; then again,
Solaris claims select() is deprecated (and I made a fool of myself
for repeating this on one of the FreeBSD lists once upon a time...).

Ah, well.
