SCO Unix 386 3.2.0 rename() fails on 14 char file names!

[Tom Ivar Helbekkmo]

Just discovered a bug in the rename() library function under SCO Unix
here...  If either of the file names passed as parameters is 14
characters in length, the call fails with ENAMETOOLONG.  Seems there's
a fence-post error in there...  :-)  To work around it, use

	unlink(target);
	link(source, target);
	unlink(source);

instead of

	rename(source, target);

and you'll be OK.
