What were you trying to do?
  
  mv a file from local disk to AFS/

What's wrong: 

  mv'ing a file from local disk to AFS (athena, sipb, zone cells)
  gives the error:

    mv: /mit/yandros/baz: Not owner

  then moves the file, apparent;y successfully (diff and cmp say that
  relevant files match apropos backup copies in original dir.).  The
  original file *is* removed, and the exit value is 0.

  Interestingly, using the net cell as the target, I get the exact
  same behavior except that the error message is:

    mv: /mit/yandros/project/dcns/barquux: Permission denied

  I tested this with {relative,absolute} pathnames to files on
  {local,AFS} filesystems in every permutation I could think of at
  6:30am. :-)

What should have happened:

  No error message, or the original file shouldn't be removed, and it
  should exit with status 0.
