Ehm, I *really* want it to be a symlink, that way you easily check what the timezone is without needing to boot the device or compare md5sums. The last thing the TSC said on the split /usr was something along the lines of "would be nice, but only if it doesn't make things worse". A cp instead of ln would make things worse IMO.
