Summary: getFileStatus does not include the file name in IO-Error

Initial Comment:
Hi.

When applied to a dangling symlink, then
System.Posix.Files.getFileStatus produces an IO-Error.
But it doesn't include the path of the symlink (to be
accessed with ioeGetFileName) in the exception.

My email address: post at volker-wysk.de

Bye.

Fixed; but the fix will be in 6.4 only (not 6.2.2).
