If SHAPEPATH and DATA don't add up to a valid filesystem path,
Python MapScript segfaults when we try to draw().

An IOError should be raised instead.

I think that I was wrong to submit this bug.  Am testing for
it and the test passes.

    def testDrawBadData(self):
        self.mapobj1.getLayerByName('POLYGON').data = 'foo'
        self.assertRaises(MapServerError, self.mapobj1.draw)

Resolving it as 'works for me'.
