It appears that the generic filesystem code in darwin does not detect
attempts to move a file across filesystem types. (at least, this is the
case for the xnu code I have lying around from almost a year ago; my
anoncvs access was lost when apple moved to using ADC accounts for APSL
registration, and I can't make it work anymore....)

I guess afs needs to do cross-device link/rename detection sooner than it
does on all the bsd platforms.

I would claim that this belongs in the generic filesystem code, but the
other bsd platforms do it the same way as darwin...
