Re: human readable strings from {Errorline, Module, ErrorDescriptor}

Ok, I think I can follow that and do a pull request with all the man
pages to patch if the basic information to include in the patch makes
sense.  If it should not be included there, I guess no one needs to do
any work.

Thanks.

BTW, that page says:

"whether it is a bug-fix och if it is a new feature"

'och' should probably be 'or'.  I took the liberty of changing it.
