i am confused.  what about all that information you can have
because it's a string, things that very from invocation to
invocation?  unix says 'bus error'; plan 9 tells you the pc of
the fault, or in other cases the file name that failed, the
fp trap condition, and so on and so on. it's not some
set of 23 errors; it's a huge informative space. why give that
up?
