Regarding bug 268 in the bug tracker:

This appears to be due to the following change:
2007-10-31 Sven Joachim <address@hidden>
* dired-aux.el (dired-copy-file-recursive):
Preserve directory permissions.
Could someone fix this in both the trunk and the branch?
It looks like a simple condition-case around the call to
set-file-modes in dired-copy-file-recursive should be
enough; but someone with access to vfat needs to test this.
