I tried it with that snapshot and the problem is still there.

Description:
------------
The rename function says that renaming across partitions was fixed in
4.3.3, but it appears that it is broken in 4.3.8.

I have three partitions on my system:
/
/dev/shm
/tmp

I'm not sure if it matters, but the disk is mirrored with RAID level
1.

Trying to rename a directory that resides in "/tmp" to the "/" file
system results in:

"Warning: rename(<from>, <to>): Is a directory in <script> on line
XX."

and the <to> directory name is created as an empty file.

I moved the <from> directory to the "/" partition and then tried the
rename again (using the same PHP code) and everything worked fine.
