"struct" was written by Brenda Baker at Bell Labs, and is AT&T licensed
code. It doesn't appear in S5, but a number of things originally
released with AT&T V7 UNIX don't appear in S5. They can't release it to
the public domain, except by rewriting it, and I suspect that's not
exactly at the top of their priority list (Baker did publish a paper, as
I remember, on the algorithms she used, so that might be a start).
