After applying the v3-patches, I see failure like these:
macOS - Sonoma - Meson - Cirrus CI
<https://cirrus-ci.com/task/4589192849653760>
Windows - Server 2019, VS 2019 - Meson & ninja - Cirrus CI
<https://cirrus-ci.com/task/5715092756496384>
Linux - Debian Bookworm - Meson - Cirrus CI
<https://cirrus-ci.com/task/6629886430806016>

One issue with this approach is that if a failure occurs during rename, we
cannot
unlink(INJ_DUMP_FILE_TMP), because durable_rename does not handle this
before throwing an error.

Should we also consider unlinking the target file INJ_DUMP_FILE in case of
an
error during renaming?
Since target files are already synced at the start in the durable_rename()
function.
