Re: Can't move temporary on update.

It would have also been quite useful to get the filename of that file
that SVN tried to copy the temporary for. If it would have stated
"print_options.exe", we could have run a bit of testing just with that
one file to easier trace it down to an anti virus related problem (would
have been quite obvious already just by the filename, since it's an
exe-file).
