The only place I found was here; https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/validation.cpp#L1793 which doesn=E2=80=99t enforce it, all that code does is check that the txid= is=20 unknown or fully spent. And since the below idea from Russel would change the txid, it would seem n= o=20 full client would reject this. Maybe its in a BIP, but I can=E2=80=99t find it in the code.
