Not really; I think you're right the directory can be removed.  It could
easily have been an oops somewhere in the guts of install.pl where the
wrong variable is used to create an UPDATE area.  A quick glance at the
current install.pl in $SYSPERL doesn't show where it might be created
either.  I just can't see anywhere it could conceivably get to do a
mkdir on $AIPS_ROOT/TEXT/UPDATE or even $DOCTXT/UPDATE.
