There are any number of these in the test suite. I think nobody has
noticed since the cleanup code is generally irrelevant -- since it
doesn't fully work, nobody relies on it working. In some cases, like
this one, the "rm" seems to be to work around possible permission
issues; but in practice nobody has ever hit those, either.
It would be great to do better here. However, I doubt I'm going to do
so, since I don't have a need for it. For the particular case of
parallel native testing, the problem is solved by isolating all the
outputs in a small set of directories.
