How about reifying the error? I.e., instead of storing the OSError
object, you wrap up the error info ('foobar') in a custom Result
(e.g.) object that you implement your own comparison for? Then, instead
of allowing your function to raise and exception, you catch the
exception and wrap its data in a Result object?

Yawar
