This reverts commit 83af58f806.
It turns out that at least the assembly implementation for strncpy() was
buggy. Revert the whole commit and return back to the default coding.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
