Our dbcommands.c has for create database:
snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), "cp -r '%s' '%s'", src_loc, target_dir);
but my BSD/OS manual only documents 'cp -R' and mentions:
Historic versions of the cp utility had a -r option. This implementation supports that option, however, its use
isstrongly discouraged, as it does not correctly copy special files, symbolic links or fifo's.
I think we should switch to -R in our code.
