NetBSD: <http://www.tac.eu.org/cgi-bin/man-cgi?bcopy+3> OpenBSD: <http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=bcopy&sektion=3> FreeBSD: <http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=bcopy&sektion=3> Those are all pretty much identical and say that the strings can overlap and that a bcopy function appeared in BSD4.2. SunOS 4.1.3: <http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=bcopy&sektion=3&manpath=SunOS+4.1.3> That one aliases SunOS 4.1.3's bstring(3) man page which describes a group of related functions (including bcopy). It also says the strings can overlap.
