Mark has said before that this behavior is intentional, to avoid
giving specific error information to an attacker.

Yes there's definitely an assumption that the file you're trying to
copy will exist at the source location, which does not hold true once
you start using singlecopy. The "can't stat/auth failed" log message
spamminess on both client and server and this problem are follow-ons
from that assumption.
