That looks normal to me.  Previously, the cross-device link error would
be silently ignored and the directory would not be deleted - no message
would be printed about the cross-device link error.

Now, however, the cross-device link error is reported, and the directory
is deleted.  If you find that the directory is not actually deleted,
please let me know so I can look into it more.  When I tested it on my
end, the directory was in fact deleted.
