arg(2) refers to arginit and argopt in NAME, but neither exists anyplace I
can get to (including all version of libc.h in sourcesdump). Are these a
holdover from pre-4ed? I lost my 2ed CDs so I can't look back before
what's in sourcesdump.

Yes. Arginit and argopt were the argument processing
functions in the Alef libraries in 2e. They should be
dropped from the list at the top of arg(2).
