Heads up: rpm 4.11 alpha coming soon to rawhide near you

Looks like some packages make use of:

%doc --parents Copyright.txt README.html vtkLogo.jpg vtkBanner.gif 
Wrapping/*/README*

To pass "--parents" to the cp command.  This appears to no longer work:

Executing(%doc): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.SeYbFF
+ umask 022
+ cd /builddir/build/BUILD
+ cd VTK5.10.1
+ 
DOCDIR=/builddir/build/BUILDROOT/vtk-5.10.1-2.fc19.x86_64/usr/share/doc/vtk-5.10.1
+ export DOCDIR
+ /usr/bin/mkdir -p 
/builddir/build/BUILDROOT/vtk-5.10.1-2.fc19.x86_64/usr/share/doc/vtk-5.10.1
+ cp -pr --parents 
/builddir/build/BUILDROOT/vtk-5.10.1-2.fc19.x86_64/usr/share/doc/vtk-5.10.1
cp: missing destination file operand after 
'/builddir/build/BUILDROOT/vtk-5.10.1-2.fc19.x86_64/usr/share/doc/vtk-5.10.1'
Try 'cp --help' for more information.

Now, this seems like very much a hack that only accidentally worked.  That 
said, can this functionality be restored somehow?
