hmm - someone should fix that broken implementation of memcpy.

It's damn fast. I like fast libraries, don't you?

The ISO standards for both C99 and POSIX/UNIX state: "If copying
takes place between objects that overlap, the behavior is undefined."

There wouldn't be a memmove() function if it weren't needed.
