+Summary: File.Exists throws IOException for invalid filename
+
+On Windows, when an invalid filename is passed to File.Exists, the 
+following exception is thrown:
+
+Unhandled Exception: System.IO.IOException: Win32 IO returned 123. Path: ?
+Whatever*.dll
+in <0x00092> System.IO.File:Exists (string)
+in <0x0000c> EntryPoint:Main ()
+
+When using MS.NET, no exception is reported.
+
+I've attached a patch that fixes this issue. Can someone review it ?
