Out the top of my head it can very well be that the code first tries a stat() 
and that if that gives any errors those are ignored and a get() is tried 
instead.

Calling error twice from stat() would be wrong though, because I suspect what 
happens then is that the second error() call is considered to be the reply to 
the get() that follows.

I haven't checked the source though, so I could be completely wrong :-]

Cheers,
