RE: Compiling hws with ghc 6

I'm trying to compile the haskell web server (from the 
haskell-libs project 
at sf.net) with ghc6 and I'm stuck on the last function in Util.hs:
statMaybe filename = do
    maybe_stat <- tryJust ioErrors (getFileStatus filename)
    case maybe_stat of
        Left e -> do
            errno <- getErrorCode
            if errno == eNOENT
                then return Nothing
                else ioError e
        Right stat ->
            return (Just stat)
What are the equivalents for getFileStatus and getErrorCode 
these days?
I suppose Foreign.C.Error.getErrno might substitute for 
getErrorCode, but I'm stumped on getFileStatus.
You're right about getErrno.  getFileStatus is available from
System.Posix.

Cheers,
