Further... I suspect its vim_rename()'s problem (internal, fileio.c).
The code removes the "to" file prior to moving the "from" file.
For the Amiga, it locks the "from" file first (and later unlocks it) to
prevent just this sort of problem -- but there is no such protection
using linux to rename a fat32-mounted file.
