    Thanks to everyone who suggested using the HP equivalent to bcopy.
    I won't be using (as a sign of protest Man, can you dig it!) them,
    but thanks for the help anyways. :-)

Good idea.  memcpy() is not a safe substitute for bcopy(), anyway.
bcopy() is guaranteed to work with overlapping strings, memcpy() is
not.  The other members of memory(3x) and bstring(3x) are safe
substitutes.
