I've just become aware that unlink on a directory is required by POSIX to
fail with EPERM, while our code (diskfs) and (so I am told) Linux returns
EISDIR. I looked at FreeBSD 4.3 and NetBSD 1.5, and those use EPERM.
If there are no objections, I will change diskfs to return EPERM.
- unlink EPERM vs EISDIR,
