This may not reproduce our rm problems (since those don't have Control-C events), but here's the last part of the strace: open("src/modules", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY) = 3 fstat(3, {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 fcntl(3, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0 getdents64(3, 0x534808, 32768) = -1 EIO (Input/output error) --- SIGINT (Interrupt) @ 0 (0) --- We're trying to reproduce the problem with an uninterrupted rm under strace.
