Modified files:

Log:
Fix the case when renaming to a file that you've just created and deleted,
that had an inode that has not yet been written to disk, when the inode of the
new file is also not yet written to disk, and your old directory entry is not
yet on disk but you need to remove it and the new name exists in memory
but has been deleted but the transaction to write the deleted name to disk
exists and has not yet been cancelled by the request to delete the non
existant name. I don't know how kirk could have missed such a glaring
problem for so long. :-) Especially since the inconsitency survived on
the disk for a whole 4 second on average before being fixed by other code.
This was not a crashing bug but just led to filesystem inconsitencies
if you crashed.
