Hm, isn't that ENOTEMPTY?  (checks SUS) Oh, ok, some systems do use
EEXIST for that.

Given that a subsequent rmdir succeeds, I wonder if we're looking at
some sort of in-filesystem race condition here.  But then you would
think this would happen all the time.  rm -r does just what we are
doing here, after all.

Oops. yeah, that. ;-)
