I shamelessly took inspiration from coreutils.
How is that okay, isn't coreutils GPL-licensed?
Well, I only took inspiration in that code, I haven't copied it. But this idea of using memcmp() is quite old and described for instance in this blog post too: https://rusty.ozlabs.org/?p=560 Do you want to switch to something else instead? If so, how can we make sure it's not already somewhere in a code with incompatible license? Michal
