This errno is not very useful, as it may come from the stat above, and
you provided no way to figure out what was the syscall (the mkdir or
the stat) which failed. Also, the errnos of unlink or mkdir just above
the stat are just lost.
It is not worse than before, but not very much better either, and
probably confusing. I suggest you just leave this one as it is.
