[issue16074] Bad error message in os.rename, os.link, and os.symlink

Larry Hastings added the comment:

As release manager, I would be willing to consider this patch.  However, as original author of the code in question, I don't like it.  Showing zero filenames, while potentially less confusing, is also far less helpful.  A better solution would be to show both filenames.  This would require changing the OSError exception, and adding some new PyErr_ API calls.  I'm now working on a patch to do that.
