This is good, thank you for adding it. It can be even better though, if
you don't skimp on message length (-; I mean, I know what BL is, I can
fingure what LDFW is because you have explained to me and I can see the
source code, but somewone who sees it for the first time will be only
slightly less surprised than with v2 error message only. Come on, you
can make this message twice as long and it will still fit in 80 characters (-;
Don't change it if v3 is the last. If not, please, make it more verbose.
