New Revision: 343326
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/343326

Log:
  MFC: 325765 (imp) Add notes about overlapping copies.
  
  Add notes to each of these that specifically state that results are
  undefined if the strings overlap. In the case of memcpy, we document
  the overlapping behavior on FreeBSD (pre-existing). For str*, it is
  left unspecified, however, since the default (and x86) implementations
  do not handle overlapping strings properly.
