* 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'.
Reported by Michael Stone.
* 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.

* human.c (default_block_size): New function.

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.
