I can't reproduce the problem. I used your code, only adding
declarations of isDir (as a BOOL) and aliasPath (as an NSString *),
and initializing isDir to NO.

I also added an additional NSLog() here:
NSLog(@"isDir %i", isDir);

If the directory does not exist, I get:
2005-11-02 14:02:50.718 a.out[1508] isDir 0
2005-11-02 14:02:50.722 a.out[1508] isDir 0
2005-11-02 14:02:50.724 a.out[1508] isDir 0
Not surprising it's always 0, there's no code to change isDir after
creating the dir.
If the directory does exist, I get:
2005-11-02 14:02:58.374 a.out[1509] isDir 0
2005-11-02 14:02:58.378 a.out[1509] isDir 1
...which is what I'd expect.
It doesn't look broken from here. What do you get if you add the extra NSLog()?
