Well, "anyone" will usually be me ;-)

To the best of my knowledge and belief it does work. This is the code it
should cause to be executed:
my $timestr = strftime "%Y-%m-%d-%H:%M:%S", localtime($now);move("$pgsql", "pgsqlkeep.$timestr");move("inst",
"instkeep.$timestr")   if (-d "inst") ;
 

Please see if you can trap the script stdout/stderr somewhere so that next
time it fails you can send it to me.

How exactly do you have the buildfarm runs automated? Maybe that does a
little cleaning of its own?

cheers
