    Description

      Some of the copy routines in org.apache.derby.iapi.services.io;FileUtil.java , retuns false by catching IOExceptions. It will be better to throw exceptions.
      For example backup uses these routines in some case , if a copy during bacup fails becuase out of disk space ; all we tell the user is backup failed.
      It will be better to include the IO Excetpion.
