+/**
+ * Copy a memory segment to another, possibly overlapping, segment,
+ * stop when a NUL byte or a specified substring is encountered.
+ * 
+ * This is a slibc extension added for completeness.
+ * It is only available if GNU extensions are available.
+ * 
+ * @param   whither  The destination memory segment.
+ * @param   whence   The source memory segment.
+ * @param   str      The substring, ignored if `NULL`.
+ *                   NOTE that if the resulting string at least this
+ *                   long, no NUL byte will be written to `whither'.
+ *                   On the otherhand, if the resultnig string is
+ *                   shorter, `whither` will be filled with NUL bytes
+ *                   until this amount of bytes have been written.
+ * @param   maxlen   The maximum number of bytes to copy.
+ * @return           `NULL` if `str` was not encountered, otherwise
+ *                   the position of `str` translated to `whither`,
+ *                   that is, the address of `whither` plus the
+ *                   number of copied characters; the address of
+ *                   one character passed the last written non-NUL
+ *                   character.
