My best guess on this is that monotone/boost is at some level using 
rename() to move stuff about, and that this is failing on Win32 (NB: 
I've not looked at the code, I'm only guessing here).  I'll be able to 
look at this, but probably not until Thursday.  If someone else wants to 
take a look, the MSDN docs tell me that MoveFile() should do everything 
we want.
