Fix platform-specific performance regression in logtape.c.

Commit 24d85952 made a change that indirectly caused a performance
regression by triggering a change in the way GCC optimizes memcpy() on
some platforms.

The behavior seemed to contradict a GCC document, so I filed a report:

https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=95556

This patch implements a narrow workaround which eliminates the
regression I observed. The workaround is benign enough that it seems
unlikely to cause a different regression on another platform.
