I haven't spoken about file-subdir-of-p. Exactly. I don't think noexist is needed for subdir-p (it should accept a non-existing dir for the `dir1' argument, without any need for a noexist arg and it should reject a non-existing dir2), but I can live with it, but file-equal-p only makes sense for existing files and should not have a `noexist' argument.
