log deletion of directories?

Trying to find what is deleting a directory (/tmp/xauth).  Thought I'd
start with the basics, and just putting a watch on it.

[bel@comsup]:/etc/audit > auditctl -w /testdir/checkdir -p rwxa -k
missingfiles
[bel@comsup]:/etc/audit > auditctl -l|grep missing
LIST_RULES: exit,always dir=/testdir/checkdir (0x11) perm=rwxa
key=missingfiles
[bel@comsup]:/etc/audit > ausearch -k missingfiles
<no matches>
[bel@comsup]:/etc/audit > rmdir /testdir/checkdir 
[bel@comsup]:/etc/audit > ausearch -k missingfiles
<no matches>
[bel@comsup]:/etc/audit > auditctl -w /testdir/checkfile -p wrxa -k
missingfiles
[bel@comsup]:/etc/audit > rm /testdir/checkfile
[bel@comsup]:/etc/audit > ausearch -k missingfiles
----
(lots of text here)

Any suggestions on how to get it to do for a directory what it's doing
for the file?  I don't want to watch /tmp for adds/removes obviously;
that would be silly.  It is indeed a *directory* (regardless whether the
directory contents show up) that I want to watch.

Thanks,
