When the vdt-update-certs package brings down a new set of
certificates, it copies the *.r0 crl files over from the previous
set of certificates. This is fine, except that it is not preserving
the date and we get the error messages as outlined below.

The system call should be a "cp -p" to keep the date of the *.r0 files
the same as they were.

We're planning on a VDT 1.8.1 update soon, so we'll roll this in. I'll ask Scott Kronenfeld to do it, so future communication about this will be from him. -alain

Commit comment:
Added the '-p' flag to the cp command that preserves CRLs
so that the CRL files retain their original attributes.
