Like I explained in the beginning, even if a given problem is flagged by
coverity because it cannot prove that memcpy() won't reference the possibly
NULL pointer, it's still worth fixing so that when running coverity in the
future won't show the same issue over and over again. It's the same logic you
apply when fixing compiler warnings even if you know that ultimately they're
benign.
