If this is a serious bug report I'd encourage you make it in a separate
message with more information (platform, version, etc.). I can't
reproduce it based on what you've given.

from os import path

filenames = ["abc", "def"]

[[(locals.append(here),remotes.append(there)) for here,there in
  [stripped.split('\t') for strippied in
   [line.strip() for line in open(fn).readlines()]
   if stripped]
  if path.exists(here)] for fn in filenames if path.exists(fn)]

Works for me....
