Note that it would easy to make which-error.py smart enough to DTRT
when handed either "200011" or a smaller number equal to (200011 -
APR_OS_START_USERERR).
If we do print "(svn error X)", I think we should make X be
ABS_ERROR_NUMBER - APR_OS_START_USERERR. Smaller numbers both save
horizontal space and are inherently less alarming.
