dist: avoid $(distdir) removal failure on MSYS/MinGW This change fixes automake bug#10470. On MSYS (1.0.17) it is not possible to remove a directory that is in use, and this, together with timing issues, could cause spurious failures in the cleanup code of the "distcheck" recipe. In fact, it should be noted that assuming a directory can be removed while it the CWD of a running process is a POSIX violation: "If the directory is the root directory or the current working directory of any process, it is unspecified whether the function succeeds, or whether it shall fail and set errno to [EBUSY]." * lib/am/distdir.am (am__remove_distdir): If rm fails, sleep some seconds and retry, to give potential "pending" processes some time to exit and "release" the directory. * tests/Makefile.am (XFAIL_TESTS): Remove 'distcheck-pr10470.test'. Report and suggestions by Peter Rosin and Eric Blake.
