More than that.  I've not managed to write any strlcpy that is
remarkable smaller than the one in libc in generated code and since I
do not understand the point of squeezing these bytes from the code.
Having the same code as in libc seems like more important to me.  But
since you find it important to squeeze down these functions to their
minimal size, it's probably is better left in your hands writing them.
