---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
 The optional package  "database_stein_watkins_mini" fails to install on
 Solaris 10, as 'cp' uses an illegal option -v, which is not defined by
 POSIX.

 http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/cp.html

 Since the GNU version of 'cp' only uses the -v option to show what is
 being done - from the 'cp' man page on Linux:

 {{{
        -v, --verbose
               explain what is being done
 }}}

 The -v option can simply be removed.
