? The other possible way to remove it is to use /etc/unlink (if you have
? it; if not, compile a one-line C program and run that).
? main() { exit(unlink("/the/bad/directory")); }
A more general version is:
main(c,v) char *v[]; { exit(c == 2 ? unlink(v[1]) : -1); }
Its companion program, `link', is:
main(c,v) char *v[]; { exit(c == 3 ? link(v[1],v[2]) : -1); }
? In any case, complain to Apple.
And when you do, don't forget to mention The Lawsuit.
