Subject: cp location should be configurable at compile time
As shipped, the snapback2 program depends on GNU cp and expects it to be installed as /bin/cp, but some commercial Unix versions such as Solaris do not ship GNU cp. On these systems it is common to install GNU cp in an alternate location such as /usr/local/bin/cp. The program allows the cp location to be set in the conf file, however it would be more convenient if a method to set this at compile time were offered.
