Just been hit by this myself with ubuntu 6.10 desktop. The first thing I tried was apt-get install mcopy, which didn't work, I then looked on google and found this page.
The two ways forward I can see are
1) Change syslinux to not use mcopy
2) Make mtools a *dependency* of syslinux
I have no idea how to do either, but I agree that I consider this a bug.
