2006-07-05* src/copy.c (copy_internal): Don't work around old NFS clients likeJim Meyering
SunOS-4.1.4 and Irix 5.3 that set errno to values like EIO and ENOTEMPTY upon failed rename. Otherwise, we risk misinterpreting a banal failure as a recursive move-into-self failure. Reported by Florent Bayle in <http://bugs.debian.org/376749>.
