Issue ID: 9385

returns error

OS: Mac OS
Status: UNCONFIRMED

A fix to tolerate stat call on non-existing file
Calling mdb_env_open with a file path to a file that doesn't exist yet, with
MDB_NOSUBDIR on a non-Windows OS will return an error indicating that the file
doesn't exist. This is supposed to create a new file, and works properly on the
mdb.master branch, and still functions properly on Windows. The error is due to
the stat() call in mdb_env_open prior to the file existing.
I attached a patch that tolerates the absence of the file before checking if
the file is on a block device. I am not sure if this is the appropriate fix, or
if would be better to move this check later in mdb_env_open after the file is
created, or alternately, determining the parent directory and calling stat on
that.
