I'd say it should be fixed. I would go so far as to say that os.stat() should be fixed so that "" and "\0" result in the same exception (EINVAL ~ ValueError). If the documentation option is taken, the documentation should emphasize the issue. Furthermore, the http.server module should be fixed because it is broken at the moment.
