14   Let <em class="parameter"><code>old</code></em> and <em class="parameter"><code>new</code></em> define a mapping of bit positions, such that
15   whatever position is held by the n-th set bit in <em class="parameter"><code>old</code></em> is mapped
16   to the n-th set bit in <em class="parameter"><code>new</code></em>.  In the more general case, allowing
17   for the possibility that the weight 'w' of <em class="parameter"><code>new</code></em> is less than the
18   weight of <em class="parameter"><code>old</code></em>, map the position of the n-th set bit in <em class="parameter"><code>old</code></em> to
19   the position of the m-th set bit in <em class="parameter"><code>new</code></em>, where m == n % w.
20   </p><p>
21
22   If either of the <em class="parameter"><code>old</code></em> and <em class="parameter"><code>new</code></em> bitmaps are empty, or if <em class="parameter"><code>src</code></em> and
23   <em class="parameter"><code>dst</code></em> point to the same location, then this routine copies <em class="parameter"><code>src</code></em>
24   to <em class="parameter"><code>dst</code></em>.
25   </p><p>
26
27   The positions of unset bits in <em class="parameter"><code>old</code></em> are mapped to themselves
28   (the identify map).
29   </p><p>
30
31   Apply the above specified mapping to <em class="parameter"><code>src</code></em>, placing the result in
32   <em class="parameter"><code>dst</code></em>, clearing any bits previously set in <em class="parameter"><code>dst</code></em>.
33   </p><p>
34
35   For example, lets say that <em class="parameter"><code>old</code></em> has bits 4 through 7 set, and
36   <em class="parameter"><code>new</code></em> has bits 12 through 15 set.  This defines the mapping of bit
37   position 4 to 12, 5 to 13, 6 to 14 and 7 to 15, and of all other
38   bit positions unchanged.  So if say <em class="parameter"><code>src</code></em> comes into this routine
39   with bits 1, 5 and 7 set, then <em class="parameter"><code>dst</code></em> should leave with bits 1,
40   13 and 15 set.
