[Bug c++/32667] New: builtin operator= generates memcpy with overlapping memory regions

["Raimund dot Merkert at baesystems dot com" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

This code generates a warning when run with valgrind:
#include <vector>

using namespace ::std;

struct X {
  double values[10];
};


int main()
{
  vector<X> x;

  x.push_back(X());
  for (vector<X>::iterator i=x.begin();i!=x.end();++i) {
    *i = *(x.end()-1);
  }
  return 0;
}

g++ test.cpp -o foo -O3

On my machine "man memcpy" says "...The memory areas may not overlap. Use
memmove(3) if the memory areas do overlap. ..."
