Why stpcpy : Build problem : Solaris 2.6

Please cc me on my reply address because I am not
on the list?

Why does gnupg 1.1.1 use stpcpy rather than strcpy.
Even the linux manpages seem to indicate it is deprecated.
My Solaris 2.6 keeps barfing about it, even though it
should not have been found by configure.

ps Using a /usr/ccs/bin linkloader on top of gcc 2.8.x

The configure script is ok, but the replacement function doesn't
get used everywhere, apparently.

Undefined first referenced
symbol in file
stpcpy .libs/libgcrypt.so

$ nm -o gcrypt/*.lo | grep stpc
gcrypt/sexp.lo: U stpcpy

I think there's a -ljnlib or two missing ...

My man pages doesn't say so. It is a very convenient function.

The problem is that something is wrong with the configure script.
There is a replacement function somewhere.
