> If a file rename fails, {{NativeIO#renameTo}} includes more information about
> the root cause than a plain {{java.io.File#renameTo}}. The native code can
> throw an exception with a detailed error message and the {{errno}} on *nix or
> the value of {{GetLastError}} on Windows. This issue proposes to use
> {{NativeIO#renameTo}} inside or in place of {{Storage#rename}} to help
> improve diagnostics. The method falls back to {{java.io.File#renameTo}} if
> native code is not loaded, so this change would not introduce a compatibility
> problem for deployments running without native code.
