+       * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Treat src and dest as the `same' in
+       `mv src symlink-to-src' when src and dest are on different partitions.
+       Otherwise, that `mv' command would silently remove `src'.

+       * lib/makepath.c (make_path): Fix long-latent bug (note others
+       just like it were fixed in 1998-01-02).
+       A user (FIXME, who?) reported that using `install -d -g foo 1/2`
+       only sets the group on the intermediate directory, not the final
+       component.  From Michael Stone.

 Changes in release 4.1:
 [4.0j]
+* mv now refuses to move a file onto a symlink to itself when that symlink
+  is on a separate partition.  Before, it would remove the file and leave
+  the symlink.
+* `install -d -g foo 1/2' now sets the `group' of the final component as well
+  as that of the leading one.
 * under certain conditions, chgrp would fail to affect files referenced
   through symlinks.  Now it does.
 * ln now makes hard links to symlinks on systems that support it.
