This would cause 'mv' to fail to conform to POSIX.
Quoting from copy.c (just above the patch):
/* WARNING: there probably exist systems for which an inter-device
rename fails with a value of errno not handled here.
If/as those are reported, add them to the condition below.
If this happens to you, please do the following and send the output
to the bug-reporting address (e.g., in the output of cp --help):
touch k; perl -e 'rename "k","/tmp/k" or print "$!(",$!+0,")\n"'
where your current directory is on one partion and /tmp is the other.
Also, please try to find the E* errno macro name corresponding to
the diagnostic and parenthesized integer, and include that in your
e-mail. One way to do that is to run a command like this
find /usr/include/. -type f \
| xargs grep 'define.*\<E[A-Z]*\>.*\<18\>' /dev/null
where you'd replace `18' with the integer in parentheses that
was output from the perl one-liner above.
If necessary, of course, change `/tmp' to some other directory. */
if (errno != EXDEV)
