| Last week I have downloaded latest GetGnuWin32 and have downloaded all
| new unilities
| http://sourceforge.net/projects/getgnuwin32
gnuwin32 is an old, and notoriously broken, port.
| I do not know which version of coreutils I have.
What does rm --version say?
| and where I can update
| them if I have old...
I would suggest using cygwin instead (see cygwin.com), which has no
problems with this example, and which is actively maintained to the
current stable release of 6.10.
