[PATCH] mkdir: alway check-for-existence

[Ben]

When using either CreateDirectory or NtCreateFile when creating a directory
that already exists, these functions return: ERROR_ALREADY_EXISTS

However when using these function to create a directory (and all its 
parents)
a normal use would be to start with mkdir(‘/c’) which translates to ‘C:\’
for which both of these functions return ‘ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED’

We could call NtCreateFile with 'FILE_OPEN_IF' instead of 'FILE_CREATE' but
since that's an internal function we better always check for existence
ourselves.
