I agree. But if things work fine, then suppression may be useful. What do you
think of adding a way to write a specific suppression that handles exactly that
src and dst in a memcpy are identical? Currently it's only possible to write a
generic suppression that matches every overlap, or really write suppressions
specific for a given program.
