Thanks to everyone who responded to my question about systems where
the function strcpy does not return a "char *".  (The question came up
as a result of a "lint -p" command on a 4.3BSD system griping that
strcpy's value was used but that none was returned.)

No one who responded knew of a system where strcpy fails to return its
first argument.
