Not quite. I did it with cp -a. Because all the metadata survived, cp would create the target file, but then get an i/o error on opening/reading the source file. It would print an error message, but not delete the empty target file. Consequently I ended up with loads of zero length files I had to go in and delete afterwards. I briefly looked for an rsync option to keep going on source i/o errors but didn't find one.
