bug#30624: 27.0.50; dired-create-destination-dirs doesn't work when renaming more than one file

[Amos Bird]

Hi,

I'm using emacs 27.0.50 and have dired-create-destination-dirs set 
to 'always.
When renaming more than one files to a new directory, dired throws 
an error at
/usr/local/share/emacs/27.0.50/lisp/dired-aux.el.gz:1891 . It 
fails early before
it has time to check whether a new directory should be created.

regards,
