nope, it can't.  This is a hardware problem.

Uh, your use of "properly" here suggests that there is a "proper" way to 
configure CoPP on the platform.  I'd suggest that there are just better and 
worse ways, that "better" is very subtly different from much worse, that in 
many cases it's hardware version dependent, and in all cases it requires 
that you know about how all of the various components of CoPP interact with 
each other (e.g. rate limiter peculiarities, vanilla CoPP, egress ACLs and 
glean/punt behaviour).  As you say, it's quite the black art.
