From http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-6099. Look for additional repro code there.

When swapping the last two lines it works as expected.

require 'fileutils'
require 'pathname'

source = Pathname.new('test')
FileUtils.touch source

raise unless source.exist?

link = Pathname.new('link')
link.make_symlink source

raise unless link.exist?
raise unless link.symlink?

source.unlink
link.unlink

The exception is:

Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory - No such file or directory - link
   rmdir at org/jruby/RubyDir.java:363
  unlink at /Users/.../.rvm/rubies/jruby-1.6.2/lib/ruby/1.8/pathname.rb:1058
  (root) at symlink-bug.rb:16

I ran into this too. Switching from Pathname#unlink to File.unlink fixed the issue for me, but it would be nice if Pathname#delete/Pathname#delete worked too.
