Hmm. Just ran this myself on the occasion of having a host to drop and it
seemed to be working okay. Worked both for a host I was dropping "live"
and one that had already been deleted a restart or two ago ; in both cases
the directory under hostdata/* was removed properly.
Is this still occurring for you? Had it happened before?
