Rather than try in copytree and try again in copy2, why not add this to
the root of the issue - copystat. Something like this?
def copystat(src, dst, ignore_permission_err=False):
 """Copy all stat info (mode bits, atime and mtime) from src to dst"""
 st = os.stat(src)
 mode = stat.S_IMODE(st.st_mode)
 try:
 if hasattr(os, 'utime'):
 os.utime(dst, (st.st_atime, st.st_mtime))
 if hasattr(os, 'chmod'):
 os.chmod(dst, mode)
 except OSError, err:
 if WindowsError is not None and isinstance(err, WindowsError):
 pass
 elif ignore_permissions_err and err.errno == errno.EPERM:
 pass
 else:
 raise
