Really weird, since copy_files is a "cp -pr" with the -f & -d options
too, which should only help things.

I would much rather debug this issue and find out what's happening,
instead of adding more copy_file/cp commands in this one script.  
That's because a LOT of scripts use copy_files, we need to fix it.

Can you do some debugging on copy_files?  Make sure the source files
really exist, put some "set -x" statements in the copy_files function to
see what it's really doing, etc.?
