+Summary: Trying to create a FileStream in a non-existant directory throws the wrong exception
+
+Description of Problem:
+
+If you use new FileStream(path, FileMode.CreateNew), to try to create a
+file in a directory that doesnt exist, MS.NET throws a
+DirectoryNotFoundException, Mono throws a FileNotFoundException.
+
+However if you use File.Create(path), Mono throws the correct exception.
+
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. 
+using System;
+using System.IO;
+
+class t1
+{
+  static void Main(string [] args ) {
+     string path = "NonExistantDirectory/NonExistantfile";
+     new FileStream (path, FileMode.CreateNew);
+  }
+}
+
+
+Actual Results:
+Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file
+"NonExistantDirectory/NonExistantfile"
+in <0x002fd> System.IO.FileStream:.ctor
+(string,System.IO.FileMode,System.IO.FileAccess,System.IO.FileShare,int,bool)
+in <0x00086> System.IO.FileStream:.ctor (string,System.IO.FileMode)
+in <0x00065> (wrapper remoting-invoke-with-check)
+System.IO.FileStream:.ctor (string,System.IO.FileMode)
+in <0x00037> .t1:Main (string[])
+
+
+
+Expected Results:
+Unhandled Exception: System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a
+part
+ of the path "C:\temp\NonExistantDirectory\NonExistantfile".
+   at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String str)
