recursive snapshots directories

[Pierre Abbat]

Today I tried to copy everything in /var/crash to my Linux box (I'm going to 
submit the crash dumps). I start scp running and go out to work. Over four 
hours later, it's still running, the root partition is full, and I stop scp 
and look at the Linux box. The snapshots directory contains directories like 
snapshots/snap-20100122-0306/snapshots/snap-20091224-0303/snapshots/, and 
it's taking forever to rm -rf them. What is going on?
