* Many routines return only success or failure, but wish to describe

* NULL on success and a pointer to constant string on failure. The
* fact that the string is a constant is limiting, but it avoids
* storage management issues: the recipient is allowed to assume that
* the string will live "long enough" (usually forever).
*
* XXX: Since the above was written pluto has become multi-threaded
* so, only when on the main thread, can this be true.
