Where and when did mvdir(1) appear? It's not in Research or BSD.
FWIW: in the old days, I just used tar cf - . | (cd some_place_else; tar
xvpf - ) preserving permissions. The hardlink scheme of cpio was the one
thing it could do that the original tar did not.

Wasn't some of that handled by the mvdir
