OK, bug fixed in current community version.

I've still two question.

1) as a workaround the bootstrap 'bsr' file can be used to make bcopy work;
 but the bootstrap file is a 'director' thing, while copy a media is a
'storage' thing.
There's some preferred/smarter way to get bsr file from director in a storage?

2) test copy from tape to file done; print some warning:
