          Issue ID: 15865
           Summary: std.file.copy(from,to) deletes the file if from and to
                    specify the same file
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P1
         Component: phobos

          Reporter: bugzilla at digitalmars.com

It does this because on non-Windows systems, the implementation creates the
'to' file before reading the 'from' file.

Severity bumped to 'major' because deleting files is not nice.
