Yes. And I am arguing that this baseline should include most of
string.h. The baseline should omit everything that is hard to implement
on some hardware (e.g. dynamic memory, I/O, certain minimum values for
implementation limits). But it should include stuff such as memcpy(),
that can be implemented on any hardware.
