Huh?  A "string" is a *null-terminated* array of characters, so not all
arrays of characters behave like strings (one thing the "strn..." routines
are useful for is for dealing with arrays of characters which may not
be null-terminated, i.e. a pseudo-string in a table which is either terminated
by a null character or by the Nth character).  "strcpy" won't work unless
the source string is null-terminated, so, indeed, it won't work on non-null-
terminated arrays of characters.
