If you do:

1>
io:format("~s",[[78,111,116,32,97,32,114,101,103,117,108,97,114,32,102,105,108,101,58,32,"/usr/lib/erlang/lib/erts-10.3.4/ebin/atomics.beam",10]]).
Not a regular file: /usr/lib/erlang/lib/erts-10.3.4/ebin/atomics.beam

You can see that dialyzer is trying to tell you that atomics.beam is not a
regular file.
