# Given two links f and h to some important content, and a symlink s to f,
# "mv s f" must fail because it might then be hard to find the link, h.
# "mv s l" may succeed because then, s (now "l") still points to f.
# Of course, if the symlink were being moved into a different destination
# directory, things would be very different, and, I suspect, implausible.
