link() on Linux returns EPERM in that case, which seems to be indistinguishable
from a vanilla permission error.  (OpenBSD returns EOPNOTSUPP, but the
sftp-server problem probably exists there too for filesystems with non-Unix
semantics.)

I guess if it link() fails because of permissions then rename() will too, so
it's probably as safe as the old code (ie prone to whatever races the old code was).
