Comment(by nickm):

 It's bogus; it should be "If the file can't be stat()ed".

 Really, though, we shouldn't be doing "if (file_status(x) == FN_FILE) {
 read_file() }" stuff.  There's a potential race condition between when we
 check the status and when we open it.  Instead we should just open the
 thing and see what happens.  That's another bug for another time, though.
