Summary: [stat] crashes with unknown directory input

Initial Comment:
Hi Hans!
On OS X and a recent autobuild of PD-E 0.40.2, stat crashes Pd when given a nonexistent file or directory.  (it used to give a not-found error, as of a couple months ago)

That's a bummer!!

Hi Hans,
I built it just now, it indeed no longer crashes.
I did notice that connecting a print to the error outlet (and providing a
nonexistent dir) outputs

print: error does_not_existconsistency check failed: atom_string
 does_not_exist

Thanks!

I am able to reproduce it, and I recompiled it with a very minor seemingly
cosmetic fix and it seems to have fix the crash.  Strange.  I guess we'll
see tomorrow whether this actually fixed the bug.
