+	* lib/makepath.c (make_path): Reorder stat-then-mkdir-if-missing
+	calls so that mkdir is called first.  Before make_path would first
+	`stat' a directory, then call mkdir if it didn't exist.  But if
+	some other process created the directory between the stat & mkdir,
+	the mkdir would fail with EEXIST.  Diagnosis and suggestion from
+	Greg McGary.
