  # The Hurd, the Linux kernel, the FreeBSD kernel version 2.2 and later,
  # Cygwin, and mingw never let anyone (even root) unlink directories.
  # If anyone knows of another system for which unlink can never
  # remove a directory, please report it to <bug-coreutils@gnu.org>.
  # Unfortunately this is difficult to test for, since it requires root access
  # and might create garbage in the file system,
  # so the code below simply relies on the kernel name and version number.
