The memcpy fast path implicitly assumes that the copy walks
left-to-right. That's not something memcpy guarantees, and newer glibc
on some processors will indeed break that assumption. Since we walk a
line at a time, check the source and destination against the width of
the blit to determine whether we can be sloppy enough to allow memcpy.
(Having done this, we can remove the check for !reverse as well.)
On an Intel Core i7-2630QM with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460M running in
NoAccel, the broken code and various fixes for -copywinwin{10,100,500}
gives (edited to fit in 80 columns):
1: Disable the fastpath entirely
2: Replace memcpy with memmove
3: This fix
4: The code before this fix
1 2 3 4 Operation
------ --------------- --------------- --------------- ------------
258000 269000 ( 1.04) 544000 ( 2.11) 552000 ( 2.14) Copy 10x10
21300 23000 ( 1.08) 43700 ( 2.05) 47100 ( 2.21) Copy 100x100
960 962 ( 1.00) 1990 ( 2.09) 1990 ( 2.07) Copy 500x500
So it's a modest performance hit, but correctness demands it, and it's
probably worth keeping the 2x speedup from having the fast path in the
first place.

X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.
