This would only copy the pointer. The fact memcpy was used here makes me
think the intention was to copy the contents of the struct, so something
like

*rep_dest->init_section = *rep_src->init_section;

or

memcpy(rep_dest->init_section, rep_src->init_section,
sizeof(*rep_src->init_section));

Would be the correct fix.
