The real question is what the RB CopyFileTo method is really capable of. Apparently the internal calls that RB makes are Tiger- dependent for that type of operation.
That's not quite true. We now use an OS-provided call on Mac OS X 10.4 or later (FSCopyObject/FSMoveObject), but still fall back on some Apple-provided code (MoreFiles and MoreFilesX) to do the file copy and moving prior to 10.4's new API.
The real issue is copying a directory. The old code did not allow it, but the new code allows whatever the OS allows from its call. To copy a package reliably on all platforms and systems, you should fall back on copying it file-by-file, and creating the folders on the go.
