  NAME
      dce_cf_get_cell_aliases - Returns a list of aliases for the local
                                cell
  SYNOPSIS
      #include <dce/dce_cf.h>
      void dce_cf_get_cell_aliases( char ***cell_alias_list,
                                    error_status_t *status);
  PARAMETERS
      INPUT
      None.
      OUTPUT
      cell_alias_list - The address of a string pointer array. This
                        routine sets this address to point to the
                        address of an allocated null-terminated array
                        of pointers to the cell alias names for the
                        local cell.  If no aliases exist, the routine
                        returns NULL in this parameter.
      status - Returns the status code from this operation. The status
               code is a value that indicates whether the routine
               completed successfully and if not, why not.
               Possible status codes and their meanings are as follows:
               dce_cf_st_ok            Operation completed succesfully.
               dce_cf_e_file_open      File open error.
               dce_cf_e_no_mem         No memory available.
               dce_cf_e_no_match       No match for key in the file.
  DESCRIPTION
  The dce_cf_get_cell_aliases() routine retrieves the local cell's cell
  name aliases. If cell aliases are found, the routine returns the
  address of an allocated list of cell alias names in the cell_alias_list
  parameter.  If no aliases exist for the cell, the routine returns NULL.
  Use the dce_cf_free_cell_aliases() routine to free the memory allocated
  by the dce_cf_get_cell_aliases() routine.
  RETURN VALUES
      No value is returned.
