in reply to Issue with backticks in ActiveState

What OS are you using? Are you sure the OS version of rmdir is being found, and not some rogue application that's pretending to be rmdir? Running

perl -e "my $cmd = qq(rmdir /s /q TempDirTree); print `$cmd` . qq(\n)"

from the command line works as expected for me using Vista64 and ActiveState Perl 5.8.7.
