My misunderstanding, I had not realised that the destination system would
not even see the chflags settings on the source system when copying from nfs,
but then why did it even complain about "Operation not supported" when copying
from nfs? However, this has nothing really to do with nfs, since on ufs...

# mkdir foo
# touch bar
# chflags schg bar
# find . -name bar | cpio -dumpav foo
cpio: ./bar: Operation not permitted
foo/./bar
0 blocks

Why does cpio not grok chflags?
