Michael, could you apply the patch i sent here to Stefan and do:

M-: (copy-directory "/tmp/test" "~/") RET

You will see it works fine.

M-x copy-directory works fine too

and copying from dired works fine also.

Otherwise in the actual state you must do for non--interactive calls:

(copy-directory "/tmp/test" "~/" nil nil t)

which i understand is unacceptable.
