Remove a speed bump from commit 36777d2 by reusing the result of the
previous stat() system call. It's a code path that gets called many
thousands of times at startup in most applications so shaving off an
extra system call can have an appreciable impact on startup times.

LGTM. Tempted to say add null to the other places tryFile is called to avoid the arguments adaptor, but that is the tiniest of tiny nits, which you can feel free to ignore if you'd like :)
