I was adding -s/--symbolic-link support to busybox cp when I noticed a
bug with -r/-a.  Test case:

mkdir -p test/out
cd test
busybox cp -a * out/

Will never return until we run out of open files or similar.
Coreutils cp on the other hand will error with "cannot copy a directory,
`out', into itself, `out'".  Patch attached.
