[issue26791] shutil.move fails to move symlink (Invalid cross-device link)

[SilentGhost]

SilentGhost added the comment:

This seems to be only triggered when moving a symlink into its destination. Assumption in the code is that when _samefile returns True, it must be due to case-insensitive filesystem, rather than this edge case.
