Problems with function OPEN



A call to open with direction probe produces the following message when a file
exists. Sounds like a bug to me.


     Welcome to Macintosh Common Lisp Version 2.0b1!
     ? (open "ccl;fred-macros.lisp" :direction :probe)
     > Error: Error #-18728
     > While executing: CCL::%FOPEN
     > Type Command-. to abort.
     See the Restarts#201# menu item for further choices.


When no file exists, it correctly returns nil.

     ? (open "abc:def" :direction :probe)
     NIL

The function probe-file seems to work correctly.
