The "-a" switch is equivalent to "-dpR". "-p" and "-R" (which appear
to be supported by the MacOSX "cp") aren't important in this case, but
"-d" is; it ensures that symlinks are copied as symlinks, and not as
the files to which they point.

If "-d" doesn't work on other platforms, some method other than "cp"
will have to be used for populating $GISBASE/lib.
