Could you give this patch a try?  It lets checkout-cache remove
a file where you want to have a directory (because you want to
create something underneath) or remove a whole subdirectory
where you want to have a non-directory, when '-f' parameter is
specified.

If things test well, I'll put this in the git-jc repository and
ask Linus to pull from it alongside with other accumulated
patches when he returns.

Thanks.
