Directory.renameFile fails on symlinks
renameFile fails on symbolic links when I believe it
shouldn't. The problem is that it uses
withFileStatus which uses stat(2) instead of
lstat(2). As a result it fails when trying to
rename a link which points nowhere and (presumably
-- I haven't tested this) or a link to a directory.
BTW, I was surprised to not find a "standard library"
bug category.
