Um... How do you rename a file?

The only methods I've found require an awkward conversion of the name
of an FSRef from a UTF8String to a unicode string along with the
associated length getting etc etc... or the NSFileManager's
movePath:toPath:handler which explicitly states "...destination must
not yet exist. The destination path must end in a filename." Which
pretty much rules out renaming something in place. So how do you do it?

Sometimes the old ways are better, sigh...
