Running emacs 23.2 on Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 on a Toshiba Satellite P740.

Doing a dired R filename newname
   after this the Dired buffer  does not have the line with newname and not filename either.
   Typing l (= dired-do-redisplay) and the line with newname shows up. Same thing by typing g (= revert-buffer)

In other words: the rename happens in the filesystem but the dired buffer display is incorrect - it looses or hides the renamed item.

I've run the same verson of emacs (23.2) on a Windows XP Pro SP3 earlier this year, and this dired problem was not observed.
