Hi,

trying to delete a directory structure with -r --one-file-system doesn't
work, since it complains about subdirectories being on a different
device, which isn't true.

Simple example:

$ mkdir -p foo/bar
$ rm -r --one-file-system foo
rm: skipping `foo/bar', since it's on a different device
$ rm -r --one-file-system foo/bar/
$ rm -r --one-file-system foo/

Leaving out --one-file-system works as expected.

This is with coreutils 8.1 on Debian unstable.
