In dfb2144/rtems-libbsd:

ipsec-tools: Fix copying fd_set prior to select

The racoon session code copies an fd_set from one variable into another
prior to calling select. That works well for simple structures.

In libbsd we have to allocate fd_sets instead of using fixed structures
to avoid a problem with file numbers bigger than FD_SETSIZE. The simple
assignment didn't work in that case.

This patch makes sure that a memcpy is used instead.

Update #4913
