I rewrote the bundle to background the file copy, but I get lots of these 
errors and it seems to take longer than doing it without the backgrounding:

cfnew seems to have been corrupted in transit (dest 0 and src 326), aborting!
directory in the way?
failed attempt to exploit a race?
System error for cf_rename: "No such file or directory"

I think I am not understanding how backgrounding works in this case.

bundle agent rerun {

  vars:

    "hostnames" slist => { "@(global.hosts)" };
    "dropbox"  string => "$(sys.workdir)/dropbox";


  files:

    "/tmp/foo/$(hostnames)"
        comment      => "copy all files in client's dropbox",
        copy_from    => server_copy("$(dropbox)","@(hostnames)"),
        depth_search => recurse("inf"),
        action       => background;

}
