gnulib supports RENAME_EXCHANGE in renameatu, but there is currently
no way of using it.
Add a new switch to allow users to swap files atomically.
I'm not going to insist if the feature isn't wanted; but an answer would
be appreciated :)
I think it'd be very handy in shell scripts, if this isn't considered
for inclusion I'll try to package a tiny command (hardest part is always
figuring out a good name for it...), but I personally think it'd make
sense here.
Anyway, there is no strong feeling either way, but not knowing is
annoying so please tell.
