Try to get at the "mv" command through configure.  AC_PATH_PROG should
do the trick.  Also there should be a test (in second place, if the
test for mv fails) for a "move" command (I think this is what it is
called on M$).

IMHO, the same should be done with all external commands Ht://Dig relies
upon (like "sort").

So perhaps it is nice to have the following lines in configure.in:

AC_PATH_PROGS(CMD_MV,[mv move],mv)
AC_PATH_PROG(CMD_SORT,sort,sort)


cheers,
