We had two similar bugs in the tests sporadically triggering error
messages during the removal of the trash directory, see commits
bb05510e5 (t5510: run auto-gc in the foreground, 2016-05-01) and
ef09036cf (t6500: wait for detached auto gc at the end of the test
script, 2017-04-13). The test script succeeded nonetheless, because
these errors are ignored during housekeeping in 'test_done'.

However, such an error is a sign that something is fishy in the test
script. Print an error message and abort the test script when the
trash directory can't be removed successfully or is already removed,
because that's unexpected and we would prefer somebody notice and
figure out why.
