I already sent this mail on 19.05.2018, but since I got no response and
my bug-report then had be closed and I just unarchived and reopened it,
here again my message.

I'm not observing this problem in coreutils 8.29, the current version. Please
give that a try. If you're still seeing the problem, please let us know your
platform, how you built coreutils, and your locale (run the 'locale' command).
Thanks.
If cp is passed the -d option and told to copy a symlink to the directory
containing the symlink then it ends up removing the target directory so it
is unable to create the symlink.
Reproduction script:
--8<--
#!/bin/sh
set -x
rm -rf temp
mkdir -p temp/src temp/dest
ln -s . temp/src/self
#
