Since Soenke's offline for a few weeks, I'll field this one ...
The easiest solution would be to include the source for strdup.
Place the following code in a file (like "strdup.c"), then compile
and link it in:

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

char *
strdup(const char *s)
{
	char *p;

	if ((p = malloc(strlen(s)*sizeof(char))) != NULL) {
		strcpy(p,s);
	}
	return p;
}
