[Mono-list] XBuild question removing directories

[Jonathan Pobst]

The good news is this has been fixed:
https://github.com/mono/mono/commit/7c4e3654cb758d2f8543a4d8b0b4d5b25af780c3

The bad news is that probably doesn't help you.

I was writing my own tasks, so I just included the updated source code 
in my assembly and called it RemoveDirFixed.  Not sure if you have the 
same luxury.
