Thanks to James Sainsbury who check a similarly configured machine and found everything OK leading him to believe there was an unpatched version of libc.so on my machines. This was correct and thus the problem.
Thanks to John Maloney for pointing me to the HP forum web site where the same problem was discussed.

The Solution:
>From the HP forum it was apparent that I needed to install the 615.00 patch kit to get the safe_open routine. This patch is included with patchkit 4 so I checked the logs. See below.
Problem installing:
- Tru64_UNIX_V4.0G / Security Related Patches:
Patch 01111.00 - (SSRT1-45U, SSRT2439, SSRT2341, SSRT0740U)
./sys/BINARY/_lmf_.mod:
its origin can not be identified.
./sys/BINARY/inet.mod:
is installed by Customer Specific Patch (CSP):
Problem installing:
- Tru64_UNIX_V4.0G / Security Related Patches:
Patch 00615.00 - Security (SSRT1-40U, SSRT1-41U, SSRT1-42U, SSRT1-45U)
requires the existence of the following un-installed/un-selected subset(s):
- Tru64_UNIX_V4.0G / Security Related Patches:
Patch 01111.00 - (SSRT1-45U, SSRT2439, SSRT2341, SSRT0740U)
This patch will not be installed.
We do indeed have a Customer Specific Patch in the form of a special /sys/BINARY/_lmf_.mod file.
I will reinstate the original version of this file rebuild the kernel re-apply the patch kit then replace the special _lmf_.mod file and rebuild the kernel again. I'm sure this will fix the problem.
