As Miquel has told me, the error only occurs with older 2.4.18 kernels
that have XFS support enabled. Since there are no such kernel packages
in official Debian, we can neither fix nor close the bug.
Eduard, do you plan to update your xfs images, or at least put a note on
the web pages that one has to recompile it to be able to use cp -p...?
