C 5 intro - introduction to compatibility library functions These functions constitute the compatibility library portion of libc . They are automatically loaded as needed by the C compiler cc (1). The link editor searches this library under the \*(lq-lc\*(rq option. Use of these routines should, for the most part, be avoided. Manual entries for the functions in this library describe the proper routine to use.
