   I have no idea why the code in rmdir.c is there; it is not needed with our
   current implementation. Unfortunatly the CVS server is down, so I can't
   tell how long that code's been there.

sure you can; there are dozens of CVS mirrors.  just call cvs
with an explicit server:

	% cd /usr/src/bin/rmdir
	% cvs -d anoncvs@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot log rmdir.c
