These two copy to/from VGA memory, however on the Silicon Motion SMI750 VGA card on a 64-bit system cause console corruption.
This is due to the hw being buggy and not handling a 64-bit transaction correctly. We could try and create a 32-bit version of these routines, but I'm not sure the optimisation is worth much today.
