Will queue. Thanks. I agree that the fixes in patches 2 and 3 are rather clean. The tests added in patch 1 provide significant confidence in the result, though I had a minor question about a possible third test case. Seeing the solutions that make the two tests pass leaves me to consider that the third test case is likely unnecessary, because there is nothing special about how the directories are being renamed that must be handled by the fix.
