Please give more details.  What problems did you experience with `cp`
and `find`?  Did this happen during a call to `make ...` for LilyPond?
This should work out of the box, which essentially means that we have
to either add tests to `configure` to catch the problematic tools, or
to rewrite the commands in the makefile or scripts to avoid issues
with GNU-style usage of those tools, for example.

Interesting.  I wasn't aware that we ever call `perl` with a long list
of arguments during `make doc`.

Please repeat this with saying

```
make doc VERBOSE=1 &> make.doc.log
```

so that we can more information in the log file.  Usually, such errors
can easily be circumvented by using `xargs`.
