shutil generate a NameError (WindowsError) exception when moving a
directory from an ext3 to a fat32 under linux
To reproduce it:
under linux, current path on an ext3 filesytem, try to enter following
commands:
mkdir toto #on an ext3 partition
python
import shutil
shutil.move("toto", "/media/fat32/toto") # /media/fat32 is mounted on a
fat32 filesystem
Tested on ubuntu Feisty and a newly installed Hardy-beta.

This problem has been noticed as part of bpo-1545 and a patch with the
fix has been proposed but has a small problem with it. Do you want to
take a look?
