Summary: cannot mv to overwrite file on cofs

Initial Comment:
on a cofs directory, do:
$ touch a b
$ LANG=C mv a b
mv: overwrite `b'? y
mv: cannot move `a' to `b': Operation not permitted

rename() syscall is allowed to overwrite file under linux but not valid on windows side, you may have to remove target file before rename()ing other into it
