Update: this does rename such a file (only) if it is
in the top directory.  However it renames "abcxx.htm"
to "index.htmxx", and "abc12.htm" to "index.htm12",
etc.  Is this a bug?

More importanly, is there no way to recursively rename
a file pattern??  Was it possible with the deprecated
Rename task?
