IOUtils.getFullFilename getCanonicalPath usage

IOUtils.getFullFilename is defined as:

>   public static String getFullFilename(File file) {
>     try {
>       return file.getCanonicalPath();
>     } catch (Exception e) {
>       
> Hierarchy.getDefaultHierarchy().getLoggerFor("cocoon").debug("IOUtils.getFullFilename"
> , e);
>       return file.getAbsolutePath();
>     }
>   }

If getAbsolutePath is defined an acceptable fallback do we need to call 
the 'expensive'  getCanonicalPath method at all?
