;;; Ops that create objects in the file system:
;;; create-{directory,fifo,hard-link,symlink}
;;; Copyright (c) 1993 by Olin Shivers.
;;; This procedure nukes FNAME, whatever it may be: directory, file, fifo,
;;; symlink.
;;;
;;; We can't probe FNAME to find out what it is and then do the right
;;; delete operation because there's a window in-between the probe and the
;;; delete where the file system can be altered -- the probe and delete
;;; aren't atomic. In order to deliver on our contract, we have to spin
;;; in a funny loop until we win. In practice, the loop will probably never
;;; execute more than once.
