Hm, I guess so ... What motivated this change? I see that it
changes behavior, but I'm not sure what it unifies or fixes -
can you explain more?
a bit more below.

statres !=0 doesn't imply ENOENT; it could be EACCES
or several other errors. You'd need to check errno to know

Better, just tab it out if possible, though it's a long line... perhaps:
_("-%s file requires -%s name and -%s size for file creation\n");
or something like that.
