From: "Randall S. Becker" <rsbecker@nexbridge.com>

The result from lstat, checking whether a file has been deleted, is now included priot to calling id_modified when showing modified files. Prior to this fix, it is possible that files that were deleted could show up as being modified because the lstat error was unchecked.
