Well spotted! I will note that I was wrong when I said it didn't
have perl docs - the docs have Shlomi's name on them (the maintainer
since 2006), but Error.pm doesn't explicitly mention him and I
assumed, wrongly, that the docs were from his XML::LibXML/Error.pm.
On a fully built system, Error-0.17024 drops in with the regular
instructions, but it also has Build.PL and cpan's list of
dependencies claims Module::Build is required (I have it already).
I'm still on git-2.13.0 here, that provides the 0.15009 version of
Error.pm which is from 2006 (instead of 2015).
So, IFF Error.pm builds and tests without Module::Build then it
should be a straightforward addition.

Resent to list: sorry for private mail, Ken.
I built it with the standard instructions. It has a "Makefile.PL".
I have some already installed perl modules, so I am not sure about
dependencies.
Let me try to build it on a fresh system (I'll do that tomorrow, it's
getting late here. I have a lot of fresh systems on virtual machines,
due to my testing jhalfs)
