One fix for this would be to upgrade to coreutils 8.3 (or later). The release notes for 8.3 include this entry:
cp -p, install -p, mv, and touch -c could trigger a spurious error
message when using new glibc coupled with an old kernel.
[bug introduced in coreutils-6.12].

For a more target fix, it may be possible just to apply the upstream gnulib patch to the existing Lucid coreutils package: git.savannah. gnu.org/ cgit/gnulib. git/commit/ ?id=41c44a66101 c6c14b4e7f15124 7d517579760ba9
