In that case, should I send a patch? There are some bcopy and quite
a few __bzero/bzero. bzero may be a little faster than memset. If we
don't want to replace them with memset, should I do

#if USE_BZERO
#define __libc_bzero(p,l)	__bzero ((p), (l))
#else
#define __libc_bzero(p,l)	memset ((p), 0, (l))
#endif

in include/string.h.
