Sorry to insist, but something is wrong here.
On emacs-23.3, if you turn on `delete-by-moving-to-trash',
rm -rf hang forever.
This is because in `eshell-remove-entries', `delete-directory' and
`delete-file' take respectively 3 and 2 arguments.
This is correct for emacs24 but not for emacs23.
Use a consequent directory to test, i.e not a too small directory.
So of course in emacs24 this is working fine.
Maybe some changes in em-unix.el for emacs24 have been merged in
emacs-23 branch without appropriate modifications?
