MOVE method?

Anyone know anything about a "MOVE" method?  It's showing up in the logs
of one of our virtually hosted customers, kinda like this:

[access log]
1.2.3.4 - vlogin [26/Dec/1998:09:41:43 -0600] "PUT /li25754.tmp HTTP/1.0" 201 15
1.2.3.4 - - [26/Dec/1998:09:41:43 -0600] "MOVE /li25754.tmp HTTP/1.0" 501 155
1.2.3.4 - vlogin [26/Dec/1998:09:41:44 -0600] "DELETE /li25754.tmp HTTP/1.0" 200 0

[error log]
[Sat Dec 26 09:41:43 1998] Invalid method in request MOVE /li25754.tmp HTTP/1.0
[Sat Dec 26 14:22:36 1998] access to /u/http/web/vlogin/liprefs failed for 4.3.2.1, reason: File does not exist

I believe he said he was using HotDog5...  Looks like it PUTs a temporary
file on the server, tries to MOVE it to a different filename, and failing
that it DELETEs the temporary file.
