Problem with home target

Hello all,
    I'm using Debian's default cfengine package (1.6.3) to try to do what seems
like it should be a fairly simple operation: I want to copy /etc/skel/* to each
user's home directory. So, I've put 
       /etc/skel/              dest=home recurse=100 
under a copy: section in my config file. 

    Now, /etc contains both files and directories. The line above only copies
files (same effect if I use recurse=inf). If I change dest to (say) 
/home/daniel, 
everything works properly. Help?

Thanks,
Daniel
