Here is how the how the problem was overcome for coreboot: http://tracker.coreboot.org/trac/coreboot/changeset/4952 When I add the UNLINK_IF_NECESSARY part of this change, the rename succeeds. Could seabios adopt this change?

Then maybe we should send our patches upstream?
Yes - getting the patches into the Linux kbuild source would be best.
