Fine. But those checks belong in the low level code. If the OS can't
be relied on to do the checks, work around the problem in the
OS-specific code. In any case we can't prevent users from trying to
access such paths.
I agree, but we shouldn't *build* brokeness into the product. That's just
sloppy.
