OK
Your error messages are a bit inconsistent (e.g. some of them print the
error code while others don't), but I guess I can fix that up.
Still, to apply the patch I need a copyright notice for the doc too.

Kevin, your sign-off here means you endorse the patch as the maintainer.
Is that correct?
Thanks,
Rafael
