This is of course a personal opinion, but I think the interface of:
fileAccess :: FilePath -> Bool -> Bool -> Bool -> IO Bool

is not very good.


The underlying system call access() is strongly disrecommended, so it's not really worth a better interface.


I can't see problems with access function.

Of course it is a problem if used incorrectly:

if (access("foo", F_OK) {
    fd = open("foo", ...)
}
