copy task preserving permissions

It's unlikely Ant will accept C-code Steven, and a dependence on a JNI native 
lib... But the guys Ant would be happy (I think ;-) to add some hook (like a 
protected setPermission(File src, File dst) method in Copy.java) which would 
allow you to extend <copy> in your own AntLib, which could depend on JNI code.

If you make your code OpenSource, others would be able to contribute ports of 
the C code to the many platforms Ant is used on. This project could also act as 
a small CppTasks demo project, to compile the C-code ;-) --DD
