[PATCH] Windows rename failures
Log:
Windows rename (MoveFileEx) operations will sometimes fail with
'Access Denied' when it should not -- it appears to be a race/bug
in MoveFileEx or NTFS somewhere. A short sleep and retrying the
operation finishes correctly. See the dev archives for more
information (search for MoveFileEx and/or Access Denied).
* subversion/libsvn_subr/io.c
(svn_io_file_rename): Add a short sleep and retry if the rename
fails in Windows with 'Access Denied.'

Sorry about that. Sleep shortened to 1ns, also.

Oh, and I think a millisecond here is a looooong time. 1/10 of that at
most, I'd guess. Or maybe 10000 clock cycles, or something.
No no no, I didn't look at the patch, what makes you think so? :-)

According to this, we're probably not allowed to use this patch, nor
even look at it.
