Description Andrew Niefer CLA 2011-01-28 13:24:20 EST 
There is an intermittent failure which affects the releng builds.

The build is failing attempting to delete an empty directory.  I can see no explanation for why this would happen, file permissions are fine, the directory was created by the same process that is trying to delete it.

I suspect a hardware/os problem related to bug 335274

Comment 2 Andrew Niefer CLA 2011-01-28 18:14:05 EST 
I have released changes to the builder to work around problems deleting files.

See bug 335274 comment #8
