This is a libiberty bug.  Try "man basename" on a linux system, and it
will tell you that there are two versions of basename.  The posix one
which takes a char * argument, and a glibc _GNU_SOURCE one which takes a
const char * argument.  So this probably should be something like
#if defined(_GNU_SOURCE)
extern char *basename (const char *);
#elif defined...
extern char *basename (char *);
#else
extern char *basename ();
#endif

But it appears that nobody is including libgen.h anywhere, or we would
have caught this before.

For now, I think just adding __hpux__ to the list is fine, and we can
worry about the wrong prototype later, when and if it causes a problem.
