DECC$RENAME_NO_INHERIT

   DECC$RENAME_NO_INHERIT provides more UNIX compliant behavior in
   the rename function. With DECC$RENAME_NO_INHERIT enabled, the
   following behaviors are enforced:

   o  If the old argument points to the pathname of a file that
      is not a directory, the new argument will not point to the
      pathname of a directory.

   o  The new argument cannot point to a directory that exists.

   o  If the old argument points to the pathname of a directory, the
      new argument will not point to the pathname of a file that is
      not a directory.

   o  The new name for the file does not inherit anything from
      the old name. The new name must be specified completely. For
      example:

      Renaming "A.A" to "B" yields "B"

   With this logical name disabled, you get the expected OpenVMS
   behavior. For example:

   Renaming "A.A" to "B" yields "B.A"
