+ * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't return return immediately after a
+ failed copy_dir call -- otherwise, the failure to read a single file
+ in a source directory would cause the containing destination directory
+ not to have owner/perms set properly. I believe this fix is relevant
+ only when copying as `root' when the source is a remote partition where
+ root has insufficient access to read a source file. It would also
+ apply when root gets e.g., I/O errors when copying local files.
+ Reported by Piotr Kwapulinski.

* Version 4.0v.
