Comment (by olly):

 This was actually on sparc, but that also seems to have NFS home
 directories:

 {{{
 olly at unstable11s [unstable11s]:~ > uname -a
 SunOS unstable11s 5.11 11.3 sun4u sparc SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise
 olly at unstable11s [unstable11s]:~ > df .
 /home/olly         (csw:/export/home/olly):102661149 blocks 102661149
 files
 }}}

 I've since tried adding some debug code to `ls -la` the directory if the
 `rmdir()` fails and that confirms there's a `.nfsXXX` file in it.

 The harness is meant to wait for remote server processes to exit after
 each testcase.  It's not clear to me if this mechanism isn't working
 properly, or if it is but there's some window after than before NFS knows
 it doesn't need to keep the file around, or if this file is actually from
 something else entirely.

 Looks like `/tmp` is mounted on swap, so `/var/tmp` is probably a better
 choice for a build tree.  It'd likely make for a much speedier build too.
