Hmm:

"/sw/bin/cp: option `--preserve' doesn't allow an argument
Try `/sw/bin/cp --help' for more information."


This suggests that the the GNUCOPY variable has been set to /sw/bin/cp, while
that is not a recent version of GNU cp (or not a version of GNU cp at all, but a
BSD or some other variant).

@maho: Could you provide the output of "/sw/bin/cp --version"?

As a quick workaround you can unset the GNUCOPY in the environment/the
*.Set.sh-file generated by ./configure, in which case the new build system will
fall back to POSIX cp and touch in a safe way. IIRC, the old build system will
simply fall back to whatever cp is in the path (but it still might try to use
non-POSIX features with it and thus fail).

Another workaround would be to provide a recent version of GNU cp -- that will
make certain, that both build system will be able to use it.
