Jonathan Niehof <jnie...@lanl.gov> added the comment:

Might it make sense to skip-decorate those tests which require 
cross-filesystem? Put a test above the TestMove definition which compares 
tempfile.gettempdir() and os.path.dirname(__file__).

I don't know of an out-of-the-box function to see if two paths are on the same 
filesystem; I suppose one approach would be to walk up the directory tree of 
each, checking ismount. (Looks like somebody's tried it:
