why not just use mod redirect -
if your host allows you to use mod redirect.
mod redirect allows you to automatically redirect all requests to www.example.com/drupal to www.example.com
it is a simple like that you include in the .htaccess file.

I have a similar problem and the reason is that our ISP provides administrative features like stats, spam control etc with the url using www.mydomain.co.uk/admin which conflicts with Drupal admin feature and I have not been able to find any way to change it in Drupal.
Havn't found a way round it yet!
Yes, but moving it into a subdirectory is not going to help that, obviously! Unless you just use example.com/drupal as your main url, the /admin and so will still give trouble. =========================================
It does overcome the problem in that the site admin facility is accessed directly on mydomain.co.uk/admin whereas drupal site admin is accessed using mydomain.co.uk/drupaldir/admin and both co-exist.
I have a redirect in .htaccess of /index.php to /drupaldir/index.php so only calls to index.php point to drupal site content.
