I think that we need a G_rename_file() function (G_rename() already
exists; that renames maps etc). Ideally, the remove() call should only
be used on Windows.

It appears to have been copied verbatim from lib/gis/closecell.c. The
original has since been modified to simply call rename() rather than
messing around with link() or CopyFile().
