[issue14702] os.makedirs breaks under autofs directories

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com> added the comment:

Hynek: you said "just like EEXIST", which doesn't check to see if the directory exists before continuing, thus my confusion.

If mkdir -p does a stat first, then changing the makedirs algorithm to match is probably not a bad idea for OS compatibility reasons, with autofs just being an example of why.
