BTW, there's a different way to split this so that you don't mix
the rename with other changes to the same files, and so that
git log sees through pure file renames without trouble.
That is, you rename the header in one patch, and rename the
c file in the other patch.  For example:

In patch #1 rename libunwind-frame.h -> ia64-tdep-libunwind-frame.h

but otherwise don't touch ia64-tdep-libunwind-frame.h.  Also do all
other adjustments to the other files so that the build doesn't break
(except for the build bits that need adjustment to compile
ia64-tdep-libunwind-frame.o instead).

In patch #2 rename libunwind-frame.c -> ia64-tdep-libunwind-frame.c

but otherwise don't touch ia64-tdep-libunwind-frame.c.  Do the
build bits adjustment to build ia64-tdep-libunwind-frame.o instead
in this patch.

Or the other way around, (there's more than one
way to split this).  The point is not to touch the same file
you're renaming in the same commit you're doing the rename in.
