I need to get the date attributes (m_ctime and m_mtime) that
GetFileAttributes doesn't have.  I could use both calls but
CFileStatus would still abort on the large file. I suppose I could add
a size check to prevent CFileStatus from trying to access the file but
with both additional checks the speed of the program would probably
suffer too much.
