set(z,y,x)...
Right or wrong, bit late to change it anyway?:
Starting at z set to y the next x bytes
vs:
Starting at z set x bytes to y...
Just to be damn awkward, what makes sense for me is:
set_mem(x,z,y)
aka set x bytes from address z on to y.

This is precisely the kind of thing that should not suddenly cease to
work, but in java-speak "deprecated" and something better invented.
However, of course, the documentation is pretty exact and really, for
such a rarely used function, why mess?
