This is a bug in Java (I didn't had time to look if 1.1 fixes it). The
problem is that File:renameTo requires that you delete the target (if
it exists) on Windows, but not on Unix. I think I fixed most the calls
to File:renameTo, but would be glad to fix the ones I did miss. Do you
have a stack trace ?
