New description:

 I had two entries in my local filesystem, a file named "22brain.html" and
 a directory named "22brain_files", which was full of other files and
 subdirectories.  I ran {{tahoe cp 22brain* tahoe:22brain/}}}.  Afterward I
 expected to find {{{tahoe:22brain/22brain.html}}} and
 {{{tahoe:22brain/22brain_files/}}}, but instead I found the ''contents''
 of the local "22brain_files" directory copied directly into the
 {{{tahoe:22brain}}} directory.  This breaks all the links in the
 "22brain.html" file and means I need to delete this directory and try
 again.
