Subject: rm(1)'s -v behavior - filenames vs. paths?

Is there a reason that rm -v only shows the filename of the files
being removed, instead of e.g. a relative path?  The attached patch
makes it much easier to monitor the progress of a rm -rfv on a large
tree (e.g. a very-very-very mangled FreeBSD source tree, which is being
scrubbed before cvs'ing it all from scratch).

If I'm trampling on any standards, feel free to point it out :)
I do not have access to any ANSI/IEEE/POSIX standards at this time,
except for the online SUSv2 reference.

G'luck,
Peter
