[PATCH] diesys calls die and also reports strerror(errno)

Firstly I was going to write a 'adapt_to_fmt' function which would
double all inclusions of '%', and then use it for strerror(err) and
make printf-like functions happy (actually 'die_routine').

BUT, Have you ever seen an error description containing '%'? I haven't.
So, handling the case of '%'s is not worth injecting several dump lines
into the sources of the Beatiful Content Tracker.
