If this is the implementation you refer:
http://www.google.com/codesearch?hl=it&q=+lang:c+license:gpl+package:libc+memchr+show:6Tvt4_C8w_Q:Sdpf5XO0rrM:Emqlj8d07Ns&sa=N&cd=4&ct=rc&cs_p=http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/glibc/glibc-2.2.1.tar.gz&cs_f=glibc-2.2.1/sysdeps/i386/bits/string.h#a0

I would say that I would prefer to avoid assemply and Qt libs seems to
do the same, perhaps for portability, but it's only a guess.

Anyway with the proposed patch to git you don't need assembly at all
(to me it's would seem an overkill)
