Sorry for the delay, this fell in a crack. I reset it to OPINION -- this
is not a bug, anyway. I will still be looking at it.
As far as I can remember (sorry, no more Windows available to test) you
cannot remove a Windows directory if it is in use -- if, for example,
you are sitting on a command prompt under it. This type of restriction
does not (usually) exist in UNIX/Linux: you *can* remove an in-use file
(or directory). Of course, doing so will cause all types of trouble for
any user of the (now nonexistent) directory -- like the problem you see,
and I showed how to replicate.
There is no 'sync-ing' -- the moment you delete a file (or directory) it
is gone. And the terminal you had under the directory now is sitting
over nothing.
** Changed in: coreutils (Ubuntu)
