The clntraw_create() routine exists in this release, but it also has a replacement routine: clnt_raw_create(). Applications that use clntraw_create() will continue to work in this release and on other SVR4-compliant systems, but these applications should be updated to use clnt_raw_create(). clntraw_create() is considered obsolete, and may not be available in future releases. If you want your application to be ABI-- or SVID-- compliant, use clnt_raw_create().
