Lovely, if it worked :)

        cosc4110:~$ ls -F ~/.Trash/
        bookmarks.html    foo/          trash.sh~
        commoneditor.py~  NOTES_EN.pdf  tst_gc_crash.py~
        cosc4110:~$ ls -F foo
        foo
        cosc4110:~$ mv --backup=numbered foo ~/.Trash/
        mv: cannot overwrite directory
        `/home/cosc/student/mpj17/.Trash/foo' with non-directory
