Thanks a lot for that report.
It is indeed a bug.
Here's the fix:
Plug a leak that would cause rm or a cross-device mv to fail when
operating on too many command-line-specified nonempty directories.
* src/remove.c (remove_dir): Destroy the `struct saved_cwd' on the
top of the stack before returning. This usually closes the file
descriptor that was used to return to the original working directory.
