This problem is getting to be pretty strange...
Could you do me a favour and post the output of:

ls -l <.war file name>
md5sum <.war file name>
file <.war file name>

both before and after such a copy operation. A change in the 
writeable and executable bits is normal after a copy to and from a 
CD, but the rest of the output should stay the same. Also, the output 
of the file command should suggest "gzip compressed data" in both 
cases.

My guess is that there is some data integrity or permissions problem.
Oh, and just to be sure: Does this only happen when you copy a whole 
directory or also when you copy just a single file? Do the filenames 
contain spaces? Can you open the .war file directly from the 
CD/external hard drive? Does it work if you remove the executable 
permission after a copy operation?

It works fine here in KDE 4.4 RC2, BTW.
