I wanted to say something in the bug page petri showed ( http://bugs.python.org/issue12082 ) however I though about first discussing it here. If faking a stat struct and a function to fill it solves the problem, and checking for existing files and folders is the only thing that python needs to be compiled (i'm talking about 2.7) then it's possible to fail-check it by just trying to open the file.

That's not true. It also looks at the file modification time.
