The purpose of cleaning up directories that might be owned by the system
is that if we do not do this then we have no chance whatsoever of being
able to support the resulting conjoined-twin system. We need to clear
out anything put there by the previous *operating system*, while
preserving *user data*. It's a delicate balancing act and tends to
involve a lot of special cases; when we miss a case we get bugs like
these.
