/* Return: dest

   Inputs:
        in0:    dest
        in1:    src

   A straightforword implementation: strcpy(dest + strlen(dest), src).

   Could be marginally optimised by inlining the code of strcpy() and
   strlen(), to avoid the two function calls.  OTOH, by not doing that,
   we avoid L1I cache pollution (code using strcat() is likely to also
   use strcpy() and strlen(), so we already have a copy of these functions
   in the cache).  */
