Do you only need strdup() or strdupa() ?? Why don't you write your own?
Like:
char *strdup(const char *s)
{
   size_t len = strlen (s) + 1;
   char *result = (char*) malloc (len);
   if (result == (char*) 0)
     return (char*) 0;
   return (char*) memcpy (result, s, len);
}

(This is the code for the real strdup() function.)

All the best and sorry for writting if this wasn't your real problem
