I don't think the extra stat calls are a meaningful cost -- most of the time, none of the files will be present, so we'll perform all four (failed) stats, so if they *are* significant, we have bigger problems...
The old/new default only affects cases where both files are provided (which is a clear sign that the project is trying to be compatible with both the old and the new form). In such cases, it seems to me that we should pick the newer file -- that way, when we come to turn off support for the old names, we won't introduce a change in behavior. I'm not overly concerned about the warning. I think most affected people would be Xcode Clang users, so you guys should do whatever works best for you to transition your existing modules users.
