Hi, Jim.
coreutils-6.9.92 configured normally has the same problem.
After configuring with --disable-acl, though, it works (no error
message with cp -p)!
We (UNC-Chapel Hill) run coreutils (actually, all of our shared
applications software) over AFS so
disabling acl's is probably not something we should do, though. ???

I'm running coreutils 6.9 on leopard 10.5.1.

% cp -p file1 file2
cp: 'file1' no such file or directory
What's really strange is that the cp ***does*** correctly occur
(with permissions being preserved). Why the error message?
If I compile the same code on tiger and run it on leopard I don't
get that error message (and the copy is done correctly).
Thanks for the report.
Would you please see if you can reproduce that with
the latest test release?
ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/coreutils/coreutils-6.9.92.tar.gz
ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/coreutils/coreutils-6.9.92.tar.lzma
If so, please try again, but this time start by running
./configure --disable-acl
