(triaging old bugs)
The original topic of using remove(2) call in rm(1)
was decided to be undesirable.
Starting at around the 33rd message [1] the thread diverges into bugs in
"rm -rf ." and similar problems (which are resolved by the 221st
message [2].

I'm therefore closing this item (it is already marked as "not a bug",
relating to the original request).
We typically write "discussion can continue by replying to this thread",
but in this case I think it should not be encouraged.
If there are further issues with "rm", please do start a new thread
(if it's a bug - to [email protected] ; if a feature request - to
[email protected] ).
