The snippet below is from the comment section of a modules2 file that
I created using init on a 2.0.62.1873 server:
# [bar]
# / = realdir4
# dir_to_delete =
# foo = foo

The first line after [bar] to me indicates that the contents of
'realdir4' would in fact be dropped into the root of the checked out
module 'bar' and that there will be a subfolder to that as well named
'foo'.

How else would one interpret the wording in the template modules2
file?
