I haven't tried this, but have you tried assigning the value to a variable 
and then just not using the variable's value?

BTW, looking at http://www.jclark.com/xml/xt.html I don't see documentation 
for a function called "mkdir" ... where does one find the details for this 
(and others?).

I hope the above helps.
