I added that, and still left the lahf - it still "bogus" trips, 
interestingly, so far with the bogus ones (there are legit ones) always in a 
particular address region, with varying # of filler bytes, and with 
remaining bytes to check 7 (cx == 0x7)

more on this in another post.

Still faster than the straight-forward c version, but I suppose I could get 
fancier - I vaguely remember the optimizations seen in ms memcpy version 
(think thats where I saw movsd, except for leading/trailing bytes.) 
Currently not worth the effort for me.
