--- Comment #9 from Jonathan Wakely <redi at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
I think we need __builtin_memchr et al to be usable in constant expressions,
because replacing them with hand-written loops would be a step backwards. For
uses outside constant expressions we want to go to libc and benefit from the
optimization work put into the libc routines.
