Because I wanted the standard platform behaviour of both. For backend 
storage subsystem purposes, it's certainly necessary to emulate *ix 
behaviour of deleting a file in use, but for generic file access IMHO 
the generic behaviour should be exposed.
Please note that there's some rollback logic in pg_file_rename that 
might break when using the pg_xxx calls.

Andreas
