Hi,

> Indeed, this is the equivalent of memcmp. Don't both memcmp and strcmp follow lexicographical order in comparison? The difference is about strcmp terminating on '\0' while memcmp doesn't?

this is the same issue we're discussing over on the other thread.

memcmp requires that the memory regions are of the same length, which I don't think may always be the case here?
