This fixes a problem where "rpcinfo -T transport host prognum" fails
on a PPC64
because CLNT_CONTROL expects the version number to be a 32 bit
quantity. u_long
probably works fine on little endian machines, but won't work on big
endian
machines.

Right, looking at the TI-RPC type definitions, we really want:

  rpcprog_t prognum;
  rpcvers_t versnum, minvers, maxvers;

Now, this won't work if rpcinfo is built against the legacy RPC
headers in /usr/include.  The TI-RPC headers define these types
correctly as u_int32_t, but the legacy headers use u_long.

I take that back. Replacing u_long with rpcvers_t will work in both cases. glibc's CLNT_CONTROL expects a u_long here, but TI-RPC expects an u_int32_t. These match the typedef for rpcvers_t for each of these.

So, you have to make sure you are building with the headers that go with your RPC library. The headers in /usr/include/rpc go with glibc, and the headers in /usr/include/tirpc/rpc go with libtirpc.

 struct rpc_err rpcerr;
 int failure = 0;
 struct netconfig *nconf;
