You can't do this - the memcpy code in glibc is licensed under the GPL,
and cannot be included in OpenAFS.  It would be good if folks would bear
in mind that OpenAFS is _not_ GPL'd, and neither the gatekeepers nor the
elders have the power to change the license.  So submitting GPL'd code
for inclusion in OpenAFS is asking for trouble...
