Here's the promised second version of this series.

The diff in the first patch is unchanged, but I have made significant changes to the commit message to hopefully to a better job of describing why I think the old error message is bad.

For the second patch I've eliminated the need to do a cast.

Although I'm sending these as a series, the changes are independent both textually and semantically.
