Thanks.  I committed the changes for you (as trunk revision 106818),
and I'm closing this bug.

Note that this patch is as much as we can accept from you without
legal papers, so if you want to continue contributing to Emacs, I
encourage you to sign legal papers that assign copyright for your
changes to the FSF.

Thanks again for working on this.

Hello,

I found that dired in Windows does not provide you possibility to move a 
directory to a new location if this new location resides on a different 
logical disk.

For instance you have two opened dired buffers: `c:\dir1' and
`f:\dir2'. To move some files from `dir1' to `dir2' you can use "R", but
if you try to move some directory from `dir1' to `dir2' you will get
`Renaming: permission denied' error message.

For more details and temporary workaround please refer to the emacs-devel
mail list:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2011-12/msg00253.html

Regards,
LX
