Fix the case:
cp file nonexistent/
which create nonextstent as file while trailing slash clearly indicates
that nonexistent must be a directory.
Also fix the case:
cp file1 file2/
which should produce error.
o __P has been reoved
o Old-style K&R declarations have been converted to new C89 style
o register has been removed
o prototype for main() has been removed (gcc3 makes it an error)
o int main(int argc, char *argv[]) is the preferred main definition.
o Attempt to not break style(9) conformance for declarations more than
they already are.

not have this defect, and which fixes some style bugs at the same time.

the !(pflag && setfile()) case for regular files unless the copy is
owned by the same user and group. These bits have already been lost
(or never gained) in the correct way. The code didn't actually lose
the bits; it depended on them being lost already (apparently in all
cases) and attempted to gain them as necessary, but it often gained
them (and sometimes collateral bits) when wrong:
- pflag && setfile() == 0 case (i.e., for a successful cp -p):
setfile() copies all the attributes as correctly as possible (as
specified by POSIX), and we sometimes messed up the up the mode by
setting it again. Also, if the file is immutable, then setting the
mode again gave spurious errors (PR 20646).
- !pflag case. If the target is created, POSIX requires it to not
have the set[ug]id bits, but we sometimes copied them from the source.
If the target already exists, POSIX requires its mode to be unchanged,
but we sometimes copied the whole mode from the source.

for regular files. This fixes recent breakage of cp'ing from /dev/zero.
/dev/zero doesn't support mmap(), but the device driver mmap routines are
not called for mapping 0 bytes, so the error was not detected. mmap()
can't even be used for cp'ing special files that support mmap(), since
there is general way to determine the file size.
This should calm down attempts to `cp -p' to a nfs mount or some other
filesystem that doesn't accept flags or all combinations of flags.
It will warn if it fails to change flags though.
printed a bogus warning with a stale errno if write() returns a short
count. Now we continue copying. We still print a bogus warning if
write() returns an "impossible" short count of 0.
- Use MAP_FAILED instead of the constant -1 to indicate
failure (required by POSIX).
- Removed flag arguments of '0' (required by POSIX).
- Fixed code which expected an error return of 0.
- Fixed code which thought any address with the high bit set
was an error.
- Check for failure where no checks were present.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
documented and is incompatible with gnu cp. It has very few good effects
(it recovers some disk space) and many bad ones:
- special files are unlinked after certain errors.
- the data may not be recoverable if the source is a special file or fifo.
- unlinking destroys the target attributes as well as the target data.
- unlinking doesn't actually remove the target data if the target is multiply
linked.
stat the pathname "" in order to decide that the pathname "/" is
a directory. This caused `cp kernel /' to fail if the kernel has
the POSIX behaviour of not allowing the pathname "" to be an alias
for ".". It presumably also caused `cp /etc/motd /' to fail in
the unlikely event that "." is not stat'able.
Be more careful about concatenating pathnames: don't check that
the pathname fits until prefixes have been discarded (the check
was too strict). Print the final pathname in error messages.
Terminate the target directory name properly for error messages.
Don't add a slash between components if there is already a slash.
