Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and
the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give a recipe
starting from `emacs -Q':

Having org on ext4 filesystem with 0664 permission on org/work.org, and
c1 on FAT filesystem with file permissions 0075 (in fact, SD card on
Android system, so such strange permissions) I do

M-: copy-file("org/work.org" "c1/work.org" t)

and get an error

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (file-error "Doing chmod" "operation not
permitted" $
  copy-file("org/work.org" "c1/work.org" t)
  eval((copy-file "org/work.org" "c1/work.org" t) nil)
  eval-expression((copy-file "org/work.org" "c1/work.org" t) nil)
  call-interactively(eval-expression nil nil)

That's right, it cannot do a chmod, but it cannot do it there at all, so
there is no sense to fail here.

The problem does not exist in GNU Emacs 23.4.1
