-#   The logic being that the only difference between this testcase and 8c
-#   is that there is no modification to d.  That suggests that instead of a
-#   rename/modify vs. delete conflict, we should just have a rename/delete

-#   However...as far as consistency goes, we didn't report a conflict for
