Subject: 24.3.50; desktop-read should not die on non-existing directories
Date: Tue, 25 Feb 2014 14:06:22 -0500

In GNU Emacs 24.3.50.6 (x86_64-apple-darwin13.1.0, NS apple-appkit-1265.19)
 of 2014-02-25 on sds-MacBook-Pro.local
Windowing system distributor `Apple', version 10.3.1265
Configured using:
 `configure --with-ns'

when restarting emacs I just got this:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (file-error "Reading directory" "no such file or directory" "/Users/sds/.emacs.d/auto-saves/*")

because I did M-x recover-session RET in the previous incarnation.
I think this error should be caught and either ignored or reported as a message.
