It is definitely not in 4.3BSD (I checked our sources here). All of the str* functions, except for str(n)cat, str(n)cmp, str(n)cpy, and strlen, have implementations in the lib/libc/compat-sys5 directory. That directory also includes a family of str???n functions which completely null-fill the remainder of their target buffers. -GAWollman -- Garrett A.
