#6451: Fint uses a non-portable option to 'cp' which fails on Solaris.

I noticed a problem when building 'sage-4.1.alpha2.spkg'. It complains
{{{
ld: fatal: library -lflint: not found
}}}
But the flint package indicates it was installed. However, when I tried to
build flint again, I see this error message:
{{{
Deleting old FLINT
Installing new library file
cp: illegal option -- a
Usage: cp [-f] [-i] [-p] [...@] f1 f2
cp [-f] [-i] [-p] [...@] f1 ... fn d1
cp -r|-R [-H|-L|-P] [-f] [-i] [-p] [...@] d1 ... dn-1 dn
}}}
It's clear flint is making use of some GNU-specific option to 'cp' The
fact the copy fails means of course the library does not get installed.
I'll post a fix later - it should be trivial
