and of course the reports about not being able to remove the "confdir-14B---" and "confdir3" directory trees,

So, the problem is that the test program creates the deep directories, and then runs a test that aborts the test program, and this means the test program can't clean up after itself?

If so, perhaps we should alter the test program so that it can be run in such a way that it *only* cleans up after itself, and we use that for cleanup since macOS 'rm' isn't up to the task.
