I do dislike the copy. It'll mess timestamps and special permissions for no real reason, and somebody besides me is going to be unhappy about that. I think we should just move these files - if it crosses a filesystem then that's yet another special case we want to leave alone anyhow.

I thought I mumbled something about this earlier but apparently not, guess I deemed it safer at least as of that version, and didn't.
