If that doesn't work, try:
chattr -i /test;rm -rf test
Let me know if that worked for you.

I have a dir that I can't seem to delete and is giving strange
errors..
[root@dev02 i386]# ls
ls: ??*?: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character
test
[root@dev02 i386]# rm -rf test
rm: cannot remove directory `test': Directory not empty
[root@dev02 i386]# cd test
[root@dev02 test]# ls
ls: : No such file or directory
Anyone got any super commands for getting rid of a directory that just
will not go?
Thanks..
Later..
Hm, I do not know how you produced these invalid charactes but you might
try this inside the directoy where the damaged "test directory is (be
sure that there is no other file or directory which matches the code:
rm -rf -- *test*
