            Bug ID: 193558
           Summary: rm -rf should not fail if multiple processes deleting
                    same directory
           Product: Base System
           Version: 10.0-PRERELEASE
          Hardware: i386
                OS: Any
            Status: Needs Triage
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: hsn@sendmail.cz

if you delete work directory used for building port with multiple rm with -rf
flags, all instances of rm after some time fails with:

(hsn@sanatana:pts/0):~/myports/spark% rm -rf work
rm: fts_read: No such file or directory

as i see it, rm -f should never hard fail during delete process, just ignore
error (directory deleted by other process) and move on.
