When I removed it from the i386 port nothing happened. It is possible
that the hppa port is slightly different, but if it is, you should be
able to fix it just by including systm.h in the right place.

One big advantage of memset is that gcc inlines it. (It also has a
horrible interface compared to bzero, but...)
