New issue 7097 by [email protected]: Overlapping memcpy in  
TestDecoder::reset
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=7097

Placeholder for an upstream bug that is causing developers
but not users some grief.

See https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23501
and http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32667

This causes us valgrind warnings of the form

Source and destination overlap in memcpy(0xC9D7F34, 0xC9D7F34, 6)
by WebCore::TextDecoder::reset(WebCore::TextEncoding const&)
(TextDecoder.cpp:44)

The memcpy is in an inlined compiler-generated assignment operator.

The proper thing for us to do for now is probably to add a suppression
to net/data/valgrind/suppressions and/or tools/valgrind/suppressions
