7. Quite frankly, I find your attitude to be annoying and downright stupid.
8.  
9. How hard can it be to understand the following simple sentence:
10.  
11.    THE USER DOESN'T CARE.
12.  
13. Pushing the blame around doesn't help anybody. The only thing that helps is Fedora being helpful, not being obstinate.
14.  
15. Also, the fact is, that from a Q&A standpoint, a memcpy() that "just does the right thing" is simply _better_. Quoting standards is just stupid, when there's two simple choices: "it works" or "it doesn't work because bugs happen".
16.  
17. Standards are paper. I use paper to wipe my butt every day. That's how much that paper is worth.
18.  
19. Reality is what matters. When glibc changed memcpy, it created problems. Saying "not my problem" is irresponsible when it hurts users.
20.  
21. And pointing fingers at Adobe and blaming them for creating bad software is _doubly_ irresponsible if you are then not willing to set a higher standard for your own project.  And "not my problem" is not a higher standard.
22.  
23. So please just fix it.
24.  
25. The easy and technically nice solution is to just say "we'll alias memcpy to memmove - good software should never notice, and it helps bad software and a known problem".
