I also notice our *subs* throw, while *methods* fail(). The subs call the 
methods, check for failures and throw if detected. Based on what I see in the 
code sub move() appears to throw on anything which is not 
X::IO::Copy|X::IO::Unlink, and for those two it fails... and IO::Path doesn't 
provide a .move method at all.

So it all seems to be pretty messy and in need of consistency. We just need to 
decide what the behaviour should be.
