I think the slightly tricky thing is finding out whether the directories
are actually empty after the CHICKEN core files are deleted (e.g., some
other program wrote files in there for whatever reason).  In case the
directories are not empty after the deletion of CHICKEN core files, I
think they should NOT be deleted.

All the best.
