Options to fix this:
1) Just change the comments in the code.
This seems like it would confuse people as I thing most people
would expect the "true" return to mean the copy succeeded.
2) Reverse the return values.
Better that option 1 - but doesn't leave scope to return a count
if some future user does want to know where the copy failed.
3) Change the return type back from "bool" to "int"
0 == success, non-zero == fail (with option to put the non-copied
byte count in later).
4) Something else
