In the FILE_GETTER section of a given MIK INI file, put a nonexistent directory under input_directory = and run --checkconfig all.

The result will tell you that the input_directory doesn't exist, but MIK will create one.

This is obviously wrong, since MIK isn't going to create your input directory -- but if you're just skimming for errors, you won't pick it up (since the message is identical to that for a missing output_directory, which does get created automatically in some toolchains).

The message should instead be an error, and not incorrectly say that the input_directory will be created.
