In general, I do not generally like to see messages propagated
upwards from deeper levels of the callchain to the callers to be
used later, primarily because that will easily make it harder to
localize the message-lego.
For this partcular one, shouldn't the caller be doing
if (unlink(file) && errno != ENOENT) {
... do its own error message ...
}
instead of calling any of the unlink_or_whatever() helper?
