	AFAIK, both of them should work almost identically there.  The
	difference is that dd(1) allows for seek=, skip=, and some more
	obscure options, which don't seem necessary in this case.
	(Also, dd(1) allows for the block size to be specified — or even
	requires it, — while cp(1) will use whatever block size it deems
	appropriate.)
