Yep.  It was bugtraq and the person (I've forgotten who - I do apologise
for not being able to attribute!) pointed out precisely what you say
above:

  % cd build/procmail-3.11pre7/src
  % egrep 'strc(py|at)' *.c | cut -f1 -d: | uniq -c | sort -rn
    17 misc.c
    16 procmail.c
     8 mailfold.c
     4 authenticate.c
     3 goodies.c
     3 formail.c
     1 pipes.c
     1 locking.c
     1 lockfile.c
     1 cstdio.c
     1 acommon.c
