Do you have the GNU coreutils in your path?* Seems like the
Apple/BSD tools work fine, but GNU mv gives you the error.
For fun (?), with the Apple/BSD tools, it seems like you can
manipulate a file using any mix of capitals and lowercase you
like, regardless of what the filename appears to be. So
% touch yabba
% mv YABBA yaBBa
% ls y*
yaBBa
!

* I have them installed, but with ``g'' at the start of their
names, so I get the usual BSD tools unless I specifically ask
for the GNU variant.
