Nevermind. It doesn't work on Linux, either. I guess /bin/rmdir has code in it to check for that, which rmdir(2) does not.

Better test, which does work with 20110215, and which proves it's rmdir(1) being too clever, but not so clever it can't be outsmarted:


	$ mkdir foo
	$ cd foo
	$ rmdir ../foo

Eat that, rmdir(1)!
