    """
    A variant of shutil.rmtree which tries hard to be successful
    On windows shutil.rmtree aborts when it tries to delete a
    read only file.
    This tries to chmod the file to writeable and retries before giving up.

    >>> from tempfile import mkdtemp

    Let's make a directory ...

    >>> d = mkdtemp()

    and make sure it is actually there

    >>> os.path.isdir (d)
    1

    Now create a file ...

    >>> foo = os.path.join (d, 'foo')
    >>> open (foo, 'w').write ('huhu')

    and make it unwriteable

    >>> os.chmod (foo, 0400)

    rmtree should be able to remove it:

    >>> rmtree (d)

    and now the directory is gone

    >>> os.path.isdir (d)
    0
