That's spot on. That is precisely what happens. In the case retval is
-1 and errno IS
ENOENT, retval needs to be set to 0.

Maybe just make a static helper so this way you don't have to even
worry about errno here:

static int copy_file(...) {
   int rc = semanage_copy_file(...);
   return !(rc < 0 && errno != ENOENT);
}

It would make that main code simpler to read and then retval should be
0 on ENOENT case.
