 *    FUNCTION NAME     : rmobj()
 *
 *    FUNCTION TITLE    : Remove an object
 *
 *    SYNOPSIS:
 *      int rmobj(char *obj, char **errmsg)
 *
 *    AUTHOR            : Kent Rogers
 *
 *    INITIAL RELEASE   : UNICOS 7.0
 *
 *    USER DESCRIPTION
 *      This routine will remove the specified object.  If the specified
 *      object is a directory, it will recursively remove the directory
 *      and everything underneath it.  It assumes that it has privilege
 *      to remove everything that it tries to remove.  If rmobj() encounters
 *      any problems, and errmsg is not NULL, errmsg is set to point to a
 *      string explaining the error.
 *
 *    DETAILED DESCRIPTION
 *      Allocate space for the directory and its contents
 *      Open the directory to get access to what is in it
 *      Loop through the objects in the directory:
 *        If the object is not "." or "..":
 *          Determine the file type by calling lstat()
 *          If the object is not a directory:
 *            Remove the object with unlink()
 *         Else:
 *            Call rmobj(object) to remove the object's contents
 *            Determine the link count on object by calling lstat()
 *            If the link count >= 3:
 *              Remove the directory with unlink()
 *            Else
 *               Remove the directory with rmdir()
 *      Close the directory and free the pointers
 *
 *    RETURN VALUE
 *      If there are any problems, rmobj() will set errmsg (if it was not
 *      NULL) and return -1.  Otherwise it will return 0.
