----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 user 'munderwo' on the IRC channel noticed an exception when they manually
 deleted their {{{~/.tahoe}}} directory, then re-created it, then ran
 {{{tahoe create-alias}}}. It complained that the {{{~/.tahoe/private}}}
 directory did not exist, which trying to write {{{aliases.tmp}}}.

 I suspcet that we create this directory during {{{tahoe create-client}}},
 but then assume that it exists later. Instead, if {{{tahoe create-alias}}}
 notices that it is missing, it should just re-mkdir it.
