Package: busybox
Version: 1:1.1.3-4
busybox mv handles moving across devices eg. when rename() can't work.
But it doesn't work moving a dangling symlink like:
cd /mnt/a
ln -s x y
rm -f ./x
mv y /mnt/b
This is mildly annoying when you're in an initrd and mv breaks for lib64
or such (since lib has already been moved) and you have to go and
recreate various links.

The current version in squeeze (1:1.17.1-8) handles this
situation just fine. So closing this bug now.
Thanks!
