Dired 7.3 bug: crash on R command

Dear Dired Maintainers,

OK, I figured out how to reproduce the bug I just described: Just
rename the last file in a Dired buffer.  It doesn't crash, if I
lengthen the buffer, say by doing an i on some directory and then
rename the file; if I kill the directory listing and try again to
rename the file, Emacs crashes.

I've tried this in two different Dired buffers, the same thing
happens.  I know this isn't a very thorough bug report, but I thought
it might be useful to report the further observation.

Yours,
Terry
