Guess you want it in x86 (not the fastest method, just to show you an
example):

asm volatile
(
 "cld
  movl        $10,%%ecx
  rep
  stosb"
:
: "S"(source), "D"(dest)
: "esi", "edi", "ecx"
);

BTW I had to change the declaration of the arrays from:
    int source[10], dest[10];
to:
    int *source = new int[10], *dest = new int[10];

to avoid an "inconsistent operand constraints in an `asm'" error at
compile time... if someone knows why, i'm interested.

You can find pointers on AT&T syntax and DJGPP inline assembly in the
DJGPP FAQ, section 18.13

Bye.
