Moses-

Your patches are appreciated but don't exactly implement what's
described in:

  http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.2/docs/api/index.html

For example, "new File((File)null, (String)name)" should not throw an
NullPointerException unless name == null, whereas this code will:

> public File(File dir, String name) {
>         this(dir.getPath(), name);
> }

I don't know if the spec has changed from 1.1 -> 1.2, but
we generally try to follow the 1.2 specs.

Thanks,
-Archie
