Vista - recursive filterd copy

How would I copy all files of a certain type (e.g. *.dll and *.pdb) in a
certain directory recursively (i.e. including all subdirectories) to another
directoy recursively (i.e. keep the subdirectories).

Existing stand-alone console applications still work well with PS, so
robocopy.exe could be the tool of choice for this task:

robocopy <sourcefolder> <destinationfolder> *.dll *.pdb /s

$src = 'C:\SourceDir'
$dest = 'C:\DestinationDir'
$fTypes = '*.dll', '*.pdb'
ls $src -i $fTypes -r | % {
$file = $_.fullname
$new = $file -replace [regex]::escape($src), $dest
trap [System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException] {
[void](md $(split-path $new -par))
cpi $file $new
continue
}
cpi $file $new
}
