You'd have to add a copy command before the actual compiler call. 
Something like this:

---snip---
Rule {
     ...
     prepare: {
         ...
         var commands = [];
         // copy source file
         var cmd = new Command("cp", [input.fileName, 
FileInfo.path(output.fileName));
         commands.push(cmd);
         // now the actual compiler call
         cmd = new Command("g++", args);
         commands.push(cmd);
         return commands;
     }
}
---snap---

Instead of calling cp you can use a JavaScript command and copy the file 
via File.copy in a platform-independent way, if you want.
