Thanks so much, Michal!
This was a very bad bug that I'm sure I introduced myself when
implementing rename support.
Thanks to Sebastian for reminding me to pick this up for the 0.2
release.
And, everyone, if I'm behind on patches, (which has always been the case
so far with this project...), please feel free to make plenty of noise
when there are known fixes for data-loss bugs. We really shouldn't let
those sit for a couple of weeks!
