The following test case shows JDK1.1beta2's failure to
delete a
     directory if the directory has files in it. If it is compiled
under
     JDK1.1beta2, it fails to delete if there are files in the
directory. If
     the DeleteBug.java application is compiled under JDK1.0, it deletes
a directory
     including any files it has in it which is DeleteBug.javawhat delete
should do.
