--- Comment #2 from tony@develop-help.com ---
Yes, the code grabs a handle to the cwd when opening the file for -i and us=
es
that handle when cleaning up when the file is closed, in this specific case
when renaming the original file to a backup file, or renaming the work file
over the original file.

If we were passing AT_FDCWD we could just call rename().

I have a workaround patch (for perl) that calls rename() for absolute paths=
 on
FreeBSD if Mathieu wants to try it on the tonyc/127663-freebsd-renameat bra=
nch
in the perl5 git at git://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git

I do wonder if renameat() will behave correctly in a container on FreeBSD.
