Ah, you are right.  Thanks for correcting me.

Good.
And it would be informative to print the type number.
 ... "HEST Error Source list contains an obsolete type (%d).\n", hdr->type);

Of course good.
And print the type number too, please.

Nice!

Maybe it would be better to have, to find problem early if it happens.

Please be careful that there could be hot-plugged devices later.
