Paul:

I agree with your conclusion. Try recompiling MySQL from source, and after 
running ./configure edit config.h and comment out HAVE_RENAME line. MySQL 
then will use a different method to rename files.

On a side note, if rename is broken, I wonder what else might be. I would 
recommend that you run at least our test suite after you recompile ( make 
test), and also a nice stress test that will simulate your application.

If you are trying to run MySQL on a problematic system in a business 
environment, the most cost effective way to do it is to purchase MySQL 
support. I am forwarding a copy of this mail to Larry, our sales VP. He will 
be contacting you shortly and explain different support options we are 
offering.
