 Ok, someone will have to tell me what "UNIX SYSTEM5 3.51m," translates
 into.  SVr3?
 
 If not, my guess is still SVr2 for the first appearance of strdup().  :)
 
 I'm not sure when SVr4 was released, but it was about the same time as
 SunOS4, so it's less likely they would've copied from that.
 
 I'm sure there's someone on this list [-bugs] who knows, and they're
 going to have to speak-up sooner or later.  :-)
