os-aix/1267: memmove() must be defined as bcopy() on AIX 1.X (fwd)

[Dean Gaudet <dg...@arctic.org>]

+1 if bcopy is defined to handle overlaping movements... I'm pretty sure
it is, maybe someone with AIX man pages can check.

Operating System:	AIX 1.3.0 ptf 0024 (i386)
Compiler:		gcc 2.7.2.3
Compiler Options:	-O3 -m486
>Description:
The function memmove() is not defined on AIX 1.X.  A patch (included below)
fixes this problem.  It appears that the memmove() function is only called
when the mod_proxy module is included in the compiled code.  Thus, I only
recently caught this one when I started to experiment with using the proxy
module.
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile on an AIX 1.3 system with mod_proxy.
