jan replied to me, saying

"It's *not* the source tree that gets altered, but the copy made for
creating tools.zip. That copy, as said in the description, gets deleted
immediately afterwards anyway, so what would be the purpose of
insisting of retaining the attributes (which result only from 'cp -pR'
used earlier in the rule."

I never replied to that, because Jan's mail never reached my inbox,
sorry.  It's in the archive tho'.
