AFAIK, there's not a gentoo way to recursively copy files whilst preserving
permissions when said files are of different permissions.

I would definitely prefer one cp -Rp call in an ebuild over say X insopts ;
doins -r sections to copy X groups of files, each with separate permissions.

Or am I just being stupid and there is a proper way to do this currently? ;)
