Description fracture 2002-02-09 03:50:00 UTC 
	some other cp(1) implementations (such as GNU cp) provide a -a
	flag, which just means -PpR.  somewhat useful.

How-To-Repeat: 	the diff is against the 4.5-RELEASE cp(1) source.

I'll apply this if I don't hear any objections from -hackers.

I've received two objections and no cries of assent, so I see no 
particular reason to add this.  Sorry.
