It is a sensible choice for the command to assume a "safer" no and
continuing rather than hanging, so that part is understandable.

So presumably 13.6.6 has a working "mv" but their "man mv" is not
updated to how the command actually works?

In any case, let me declare victory and queue the patch I sent
earlier.

Thanks.
