At the very least failed cp should stop emerge...
Well there isn't a single place to add die statements. The important
thing is for ebuild developers to remember to add || die to all stuff
that could potentially fail. If you find the cp in question that failed
for you, the right place to file bugs is https://bugs.gentoo.org.

Looks like people have been truly over-zealous when removing "die"
statements from ebuilds lately. I've added back to HAL an assortment of
"die" statements.
I hope this hasn't happened in too many other ebuilds.
