File coreutils-copy-fix-selinux-existing-dirs.patch of Package coreutils.669

Upstream patch on top of 8.22:
  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2014-01/msg00012.html

Stripped down to the relevant part: NEWS and THANKS.in chunks removed.
Original NEWS entry:

cp -a again sets the correct SELinux context for existing directories in
  the destination.  Previously it set the context of an existing directory
  to that of its last copied descendent.
  [bug introduced in coreutils-8.22]

Subject: [PATCH] copy: fix SELinux context preservation for existing
 directories

* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Use the global process context
to set the context of existing directories before they're populated.
This is more consistent with the new directory case, and fixes
a bug for existing directories where we erroneously set the
context to the last copied descendent, rather than to that of
the source directory itself.
* tests/cp/cp-a-selinux.sh: Add a test for this case.
