> +/* strcat with AVX2

Is this really a gain on real work usage comparing to generic strcat (
(strcpy (dest + strlen (dest), src)) assuming optimized strcpy / strlen?
Wouldn't be simple and more i-cache friendly to use a custom generic 
implementation that calls AVX2 strcpy/strlen (such as powerpc64 does)?
