Ditto will copy directory structures while cp will copy files. However, this can be easily remedied by simply installing OS X 10.6 again. You can do a non destructive overlay of the OS.

You could also rsync it to preserve all attributes after you mount the file system as read/write.

As a rule of thumb, you never really want to modify anything in the /System folder.
