mjl 382ab5ae40 Correct behaviour in case of dangling symlinks: they would be (contrary
to what the manpage and POSIX say) copied as symlinks, even without -R.
Return ENOENT instead. Closes PR 6975 by Johan Danielsson <joda@pdc.kth.se>.

From FreeBSD: return correct error message if source directory is
unreadable; remove unnecessarily included headers.

wsanchez 8a99d7cf5d Fix bug where "cp -f" didn't work.
It's suppsed to remove the file and then copy, which it wasn't doing.
But no wait, it turns out that the described behaviour in the manual doesn't
  agree with POSIX. So we change the above fix and the manual to "try copy, and
  if fail, try remove, then copy".
Fix bug where "cp -R" didn't work on read-only directories:
  It would make the directory, set the mode, and not be able to write files into it.
Don't bother mmap()ing files of zero length. Was a workaround for a bug in Rhapsody
  mmap(), which didn't get along with such files, but makes sense anyway.
Fix race condition where "cp -p" would set the mod time of a file before close()ing
  the file, which would update the mod time and therefore screw up the "-p" idea,
  except, of course, while running in gdb, which sucked.
Add -f option to usage message in binary and man page. Already documented in man page.

>NFS doesn't support chflags; ignore errors unless there's reason
>to believe we're losing bits.  (Note, this still won't be right
>if the server supports flags and we were trying to *remove* flags

jtc bdf0a24b3d Don't remove the destination file if there is a write error. This is
very bad if it is actually a device or fifo.  POSIX.2 requires that a
diagnostic message be written, the file descriptor be closed, and for
cp to continue on with the rest of the files.
