+
+       Fix bug where "rm" gave up too easily, reported by Dan Jacobsen in
+       <http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2004-05/msg00013.html>.
+
+       * src/remove.c (remove_entry): Check for errno values like ENOENT
+       that show the file cannot be directory, instead of for errno
+       values like EPERM that show the file might be a directory.  This
+       is necessary because, when a single unlink() call has multiple
+       reasons to fail, it can set errno to any of those reasons; it's
+       only the rare errno value like ENOENT that excludes all the other
+       possible reasons to fail even when the file is a directory.
+       (remove_cwd_entries): Don't attempt chdir if the file is known
+       to not be a directory.
+       (remove_dir): Use the same method that remove_cwd_entries uses
+       (for some reason they differed).  Don't assert that saved_errno
+       must be EPERM; it might be just about anything.

        * src/id.c (xgetgroups): Use xnmalloc, rather than xmalloc.
