Er, this looks wrong. A normal user visible error message should not
include references to internal function names. Can you either reword
the messages or, perhaphs, add a debug mode that displys this additional
information?
These are essentially internal error messages - none of them should
ever happen. They do now, of course.
IMVHO I like Michael's change; now when people report these error
messages I'll know automatically which one they are. They tend to be
only spontaneously reproducible.
