It doesn't work 'cos the socket library call is not written in C,
so grepping/cscoping won't find it. It is generated from socket.S,
which seems to be produced by a line in src/lib/libc/sys/Makefile.inc
which does:
printf '#include "SYS.h"\nRSYSCALL(${.PREFIX})\n' > ${.TARGET}
That make file includes various other makefiles which produce the
list of syscalls which should be compiled into the library.
