Wouldn't it make more sense to have something like this in your shell
startup file:

case `uname -s` in
  SunOS)
    alias cp='gcp -i -p'
    ;;
  *)
    alias cp='cp -i -p'
    ;;
esac

Problem solved, and you don't have to sniff for gnu.org in its
help. That solaris even has a GNU cp... well, that is just silly, and
should not be used as a reason to rename anything.
