memcpy() is analogous but its arguments are in a different order.
memcpy() is decribed under MEMORY(3C) in most System V PRMs.
bcopy() is described under BSTRING(3) in the 4BSD PRM.
In case you don;t have BSD documentation (why not?), just swap
the first two arguments and change the name from bcopy to memcpy.
Be sure to include <memory.h> to get memcpy()'s type declared
correctly.
