Dear Maintainer,

This doesn't work in bookworm but works in bullseye:

$ mkdir /tmp/newdir
$ cp -p --parent /etc/passwd /tmp/newdir
cp: ‘etc’: No such file or directory

/tmp/newdir/etc gets created but with wrong permission and also the error 
message above.

$ ls -ald /tmp/newdir/etc
drwx------ 2 gb gb 60 Oct 17 14:54 /tmp/newdir/etc

Should be:
drwxr-xr-x 2 gb gb 60 Oct 17 11:09 /tmp/newdir/etc

Could be the same as:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/coreutils/+bug/2017414

I think the upstream fix (released in coreutils 9.4) is:
https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/commit/c6b1fe434
