I get the same problem with that!

$ find . -name '*~' -print0 |xargs -0r rm -i
rm: remove regular file `./.emacs.d/auto-save-list/.saves-20203-vilnius~'?
rm: remove regular file `./.emacs.d/auto-save-list/.saves-1888-vilnius~'?
rm: remove regular file
`./.emacs.d/auto-save-list/.saves-1049-vilnius.co.umist.ac.uk~'? rm:
remove ...
