+/* A rename wrapper to make tools like mv -- that would normally rely
+ on the underlying rename syscall -- work more consistently.
+ On at least NetBSD 1.6, `rename ("dir", "B/")' fails when B doesn't
+ exist, whereas it succeeds on Linux-2.6.x and Solaris 10. This wrapper
+ provides an interface for systems like the former so that the tools
+ (namely mv) relying on the rename syscall have more consistent
+ semantics.
