Actually: we could revise the function, similarly to what we do in the
SVN API; for example, write apr_file_move that takes a boolean parameter
that says whether or not the move should be guaranteed to be atomic, and
rewrite apr_file_rename in as a wrapper to that: this new function could
go into APR trunk (2.0) and onto the 1.6.x branch.
But this is a bit more work because we'd need implementations not just
for Windows but also for Unix and possibly Netware.
