Hi,

I have submitted a patch for review:

    https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/4202

To pull it, you can do:

    git pull ssh://gerrit.libreoffice.org:29418/libexttextcat refs/changes/02/4202/1

Don't use overlapping memcpy in heapextract.

Calling memcpy with source and destination overlapping might result in
unexpected results. In this case it was also useless since it was trying
to copy an element that was going to be removed immediately afterwards.
