For comparison, here's the behaviour of an OpenSSH SFTP server (serving an ext3 filesystem on linux):

    $ sftp localhost
    Connecting to localhost...
    andrew@localhost's password:
    sftp> cd /tmp
    sftp> mkdir directory1
    sftp> mkdir directory2
    sftp> rename directory1 directory2
    Couldn't rename file "/tmp/directory1" to "/tmp/directory2": Failure

So it's not just a peculiarity of the OpenSSH's sftp client.
