cp and rm from coreutils 9.1 fail with glibc 2.34

[josch]

Steps to reproduce (inside the fakechroot):

$ mkdir foo
$ touch foo/bar
$ rm -r foo
rm: cannot remove '/foo': Is a directory

$ echo foo > bar
$ cp -dp bar baz
cp: cannot stat '/bar': No such file or directory

The latter is already checked in test/t/cp.t which will fail if one builds fakechroot on a system with glibc 2.34. The former can be checked by adding a new test:

ah , I also hit this issue, "cp -d" make test fails removing -d option make test pass https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2171766

note that t/cp.t is falling again with glibc-2.37 ( which is available on Fedora 38 beta)

@sergiomb2 this issue is fixed by #108. Can you open a separate issue about this new bug with glibc 2.37? Thanks!
