Thanks, I think I see the problem now. Please try the attached patch; I haven't 
tested myself as I lack access to macOS. Thanks.

It looks like this patch solves the problem.


Thanks, I installed the attached to implement this fix, the first patch into Gnulib, the second into coreutils.

Subject: [PATCH] renameatu: port to macOS tmpfs
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Problem reported by Sudhip Nashi (Bug#52193).
* lib/renameatu.c (renameat2ish) [HAVE_RENAMEAT]: New function.
(renameatu): Use the new function, to avoid a bug when
renameatx_np fails with errno == ENOTSUP.  Don’t try to support
RENAME_EXCHANGE; the old code didn’t work and nobody using using
RENAME_EXCHANGE anyway.
