Isn't this a bug in Emacs file-attributes rather than Org? If so, it should be fixed in Emacs rather than worked around in Org IMO. Maybe you could just check the log directly for failures rather than checking the file attributes, if these are not reliable. Also, what is the ‘take‘? I don’t seem to have it in my Emacs...
