Confirmed as there are two duplicates, it's clearly able to be reproduced, if 
only on amd64. 
The bug is unusual in that the exception relates to a situation where you are 
trying to rename across a filesystem boundary.
This may be a result of /var folder being mounted in a different partition to 
/usr.

In any event, I will attach a fix shortly which should prevent this from
occurring.
