Oops; I'm wrong about this. It's only true if ibs is an exact

to be copied. I have no idea whether any dd implementations do
in fact optimize the exact-multiple case.

The animal that coils in a circle is the serpent; that's why so
many cults and myths of the serpent exist, because it's hard to
represent the return of the sun by the coiling of a hippopotamus.
