[LLVMdev] llvm.memcpy intrinsics.

[Andrew Lenharth]

You can leave a memcpy implementation in your .bc file so long as it
has the appropriate attributes so it doesn't get removed by dead code
elimination, you are fine.  This problem also comes up in systems
without the standard library like OS kernels.  Also, they need to have
the expected linkage (just saying...).
