Well, like I said, this occurs even upon an extremely clean boot. It'll occur
even after we've completely wiped out Cygwin and SSH (and rebooted).
In any case, I know it's a (stupid) NT thing. I was just hoping someone knew
/exactly/ what about SSH and NT was causing this problem.

The only reason for a sharing violation I can see is that a
process is still running with one of those directories as
current working directory. This is not a problem of ssh but
of Windows.
Example:
If you start ssh-agent while you are in /foo, /foo becomes cwd
for ssh-agent. Regardless of this dir is empty or not, you
will fail miserably when trying to remove /foo while ssh-agent
is still running in the background.
