Comment:

 The best fix for this I can think of is commit b47d4224: save by default
 behaves as before, i.e. will fail on bindmounted files. If the node
 /augeas/save/copy_if_rename_fails exists (doesn't matter what its value
 is), if renaming a file fails, the file is overwritten by copying its
 contents.

 So now you can do something like this:

 {{{
 augtool> ... make changes to the tree ...
 augtool> save
 Saving failed
 augtool> .. check /augeas/files/PATH/error and see what happened ...
 augtool> clear /augeas/save/copy_if_rename_fails
 augtool> save
 }}}
