well, in my case, that stuff is all automated -- I don't intend to
bother deleting empty dirs ;)

The only thing is, I think infrastructure would prefer that we used
ASF machines... but given the up-and-down nature of the zone,
maybe it would be best to offload our load.  I wonder.

Main thing about the preflight/ruleqa stuff is that it's very heavy
on disk space -- I think it's using about 20GB between uploaded
corpora and raw XML/gzipped logs used to drive the ruleqa app,
and that's only going to go up...
