Mmm, yeah, I'm on 8.5.13.  Evidently what we're looking at here is a
change in what Tcl puts into $::errorCode for this error.  That being
the case, we can't use $::errorCode for the regression test output, or
it'll fail depending on Tcl version.  I changed it to just return "$err",
ie the basic error message.  It might turn out that that's
version-dependent too, but the buildfarm should tell us.

Pushed with that and some other, mostly-cosmetic changes.
