Hi,

This sounds helpful, thanks for reporting.

This message is generated if fork/exec of 'cp -a ' does not finish
with an expected state. It is expected that waitpid will end properly,
and WIFEXITED() check returns true.  I'm not quite sure why it started
not to do that recently.

I'm not too confident if it will work, but could you try some stracing?

regards,
