I tried edebugging through the function.  It asked me first whether to
delete the files in question, and then it used the

	 (progress-reporter
	  (make-progress-reporter
	   (if trashing "Trashing..." "Deleting...")
	   succ count)))

to display "Deleting... [33%]".  But that was when it's actually
deleting something.

I can't see the progress reported being used before that, but I may be
misreading the code.
