>Description:
	
Since updating from 1.0 to March27 -current, mv complains when moving
files from /tmp to say /var/spool/nn (all being done by user news)

news:1$ touch /tmp/junk
news:2$ mv /tmp/junk /var/spool/nn
mv: /var/spool/nn/junk: set owner/group: Operation not permitted
news:3$ ls -alg /var/spool/nn/junk
-rw-rw-r--  1 news  news  0 Apr  1 19:17 /var/spool/nn/junk
news:4$ ls -algd /var/spool/nn     
drwxrwxr-x  3 news  news  512 Apr  1 19:17 /var/spool/nn/

News owns the original file and the target directory.

news:11$ touch /tmp/junk
news:12$ ls -lg /tmp/junk
-rw-rw-r--  1 news  wheel  0 Apr  1 19:20 /tmp/junk

When I do the same as user sjg (mv /tmp/x $HOME) I get no complaint
but the file remains in group wheel.  Neither $HOME nor /var/spool/nn
have any interesting mode bits set.
