RTEMS sets TARGET_MEM_FUNCTIONS in gcc/config/rtems.h. Most of the
targets did this already so it became common. RTEMS has an optimized
m68k memcpy which we prefer to use. I don't know when precisely it
changed but gcc's cvs on that file and gcc/config/m68k/rtems.h should
be a clue.

I assume this is related.
