[users at bb.net] Detailed log of RemoveDirectory step's failure?

[Greg Bullock]

That would indeed be interesting to me (speaking only for myself, of 
course), as I might want to revert my buildbot configuration back to its 
path>260 revision and anyway I'm prone to bumping into the same sort of 
problem again.

Of course, next time I'll know how to resolve it, as will others who 
search the archives of users at buildbot.net, so I can't put a high 
priority to the suggestion.

Regards.
Greg
