Oh.  That was an absolute path.  It was being deleted while we were in 
it.

Most systems have no trouble deleting the current directory, but it 
would be nice to generally avoid that.

All of the tests were consistently performing their own
'chdir($dist->dirname) or die "blah blah blah"' and then later calling 
$dist->remove without having returned to the original directory.

I added an automagic $dist->chdir_original() to the remove() method and 
changed all of the tests to use $dist->chdir_in().

David, please try r11502 and let me know if this passes on your 5.10.

Thanks,
Eric
