Problem with patch and infinit directories

[Bjorn Eriksen]

I just used 'patch' on a diff but didn't notice that the diff referred
to subdirectories that I didn't have. Patch creates a subdirectory .orig
and somehow it started to create them recursivly, .orig/.orig/.orig/...,
until I guess a "filname too long" error. The problem is now how do I
get rid of .orig without redo the filesystem? A "rm -rf .orig" fails.
This is 4.2BSD.
