OK, to be complete: If you use StructCopy on a structure of structures, you
won't get a copies of the sub-structures, but rather pointers to the sub-
structures of the original structure.
Since the intent of StructCopy was to provide a separate, non-pointer copy of a
structure (as opposed to the pointers created by <cfset newStruct = myStruct>),
I maintain that StructCopy won't actually COPY a structure of structures.
Duplicate, on the other hand, creates a separate, legit copy of the original
structure, including substructures, sans pointers.
