On an M/2000 with 4.50:

	$ wmi
	news@xxx.mfcf (Group other) on ttyp0 at /usr/home/gamiddleton/tmp
	$ which mv
	/usr/bsd43/bin/mv
	$ ls -lgd
	drwxrwxrwt  2 root     staff         512 Sep 16 16:07 .
	$ ls -lg
	total 0
	-rw-r--r--  1 root     staff           0 Sep 16 16:07 blah
	-rw-r--r--  1 news     staff           0 Sep 16 16:08 foo
	$ mv blah foo
	mv: blah: rename: No permission match
	$ ls -lg
	total 0
	-rw-r--r--  2 root     staff           0 Sep 16 16:07 blah
	-rw-r--r--  2 root     staff           0 Sep 16 16:07 foo

Hmmm.  I just tried this with /bin/mv, and it work as expected (that is, it
didn't work at all).  This seems strange, since one would expect both programs
to work by using rename(2).
