pmap_clnt.h not included in rpc.h

Hi!
While compiling a rpc test server[1] we get implicit declaration warning for pmap_unset(). The question is if the pmap_*.h headers should be included in rpc.h or not, i.e. if this is a bug in the test or in the glibc header.

The man pmap_unset redirects to rpc(3) and that manual page explicitly says 'To take use of these routines, include the header file <rpc/rpc.h>'. The tirpc version of the rpc.h includes the rpc/pmap_*.h headers as well. Which both hints that the glibc version of the rpc.h header should include the portmap headers as well. But I'm not 100% sure hence asking here.
