I was thinking... you may want to consider checking for file existence with fopen(), unless there's a good reason not to. More minimal... I don't remember exactly, but I think the only reason I went with lstat() is because I originally used it in code where I was checking for directories, as well as files. I don't think you can use fopen() to accurately check if a directory exists. Since it's not a regular file, it always returns an error... I forget some specifics, so don't quote me on that!
