    Description

      In testing we have seen the following failure in the cleanup of a failed index build:

      [js_test:inmem_full] 2016-06-30T20:59:37.091+0000 d20510| 2016-06-30T20:59:37.090+0000 I INDEX    [conn1] build index on: test.large properties: { v: 1, key: { a: 1.0 }, name: "a_1", ns: "test.large" }

      I've tested attempting to reproduce and was unable to get the system to fail in this manner again.

      Looking at the code, I believe that we could handle this error case slightly better and retry the failed cleanup instead of just issuing an fassert.
