1.1.10 Problem: mv and directories in use

- Subject: 1.1.10 Problem: mv and directories in use
On windows XP & 2000:
open 2 instances of cygwin
instance 1:
mkdir /1 && echo "tst" > /1/tst && cd /1
instance 2:
cd /
mv /1 /2
Instead of returning an error, something like "/1" is in use, it copies /1
to /2, THEN returns:
mv: cannot remove directory `/1': Permission denied
mv: cannot remove `/1': Permission denied
Shouldn't it say something like:
mv: cannot move `/1': Directory in use
Regards,
Xavier Bergade.
