According to ANSI X3.159-1989, American National Standard for
Information Systems -- Programming Language -- C, and presumably
according to the ISO version of said standard, and its C99 successor,
"memcpy()" and "memcmp()" are in "string.h", so any platform where
they're *not* in "string.h" is probably really depressingly old and
tired.

Yes.

Extremely unlikely - that'd be the case only if the suppliers of C
compilers for Windows have managed not to implement ANSI C.
