.INFO.;NEWIO STUFF claims that (STATUS FILEMODE <file>) returns a dotted pair.
That is correct if the file is open at the time, but if the <file> is
closed then (STATUS FILEMODE <file>) returns NIL. Is this a bug in LISP
or is the document incorrect? I.e. can I depend on (STATUS FILEMODE <file>)
being non-null if and only if the file is currently open?
