> Does {Reiser's bitblt replacement] exist for the  rest of us to study?

A not-very-thorough search at tuhs turned up V9/jerq/src/lib/j/bitblt.c
It appears to be a pre-Reiser bitblt, not what was asked for. But
weighing in at over 800 lines of C, it vivifies the challenge that
Reiser met in half the space.
