I can't figure out why everybody goes to all this trouble
if ( is_dir($dir) ) {
rm -rf $dir;
}
you can wrap some platform sniffing code around it too if you care about windows support. Sure it
invokes a shell process, but it can't be any slower than writing php code to do this one item
at a time. Also you can send it the bg and move on with your script.
