Thanks -- so it changed some time between 10.5 and 10.6.6.

And if you try a non-existent file, you get the error:

Can¹t make "/Users/shane/Desktop/12-34 5.txt" into type file.

So I just tried a few other Standard Additions commands, to see if they too
now accept a POSIX path rather than a file or alias, and it looks like they
do: choose file, choose file name, and choose folder all accept a POSIX path
for default location, while info for, list folder, load script, run script
and store script all accept one as direct parameter.

So much for release notes...
