We could of course factor the file attribute emulation as you are proposing.
However I'd rather not do so because:
- that would mean restoring the _al_file_exists() internal function only for
this purpose,
- the platform-specific files src/dos/dfile.c, src/win/wfile.c and
src/misc/ufile.c [and hopefully src/mac/mfile.c soon] have now got a very
similar structure (I coded them simultaneously) and I don't want to break
the symmetry.
