Excuse me, but can anyone tell me how I might delete a directory on a Redhat
6.1 ext2 file
system that has permissions drwS--sr-x? Even as root I cannot unlink the
directory.

What does "lsattr" say? I'll bet you've had some fs corruption
and some extended attributes are enabled. Also be sure to look
at the attributes of the parent directory as well.
man lsattr
man chattr
