actually i think this is more of a problem with the gcc than with the
sources.  internally gcc uses either memcpy or bcopy to do structure
assignments.  the version of gcc "shipped" with netbsd uses bcopy while
the latest gnu version seems to assume that netbsd wants to use memcpy
i don't remember what needs to be patched in gcc off the top of my head
but i did it once before.
