     60    * A poor-man error facility.
     61    *
     62    * This code being written in vanilla C, doesn't have the luxury of a
     63    * language-supported exception mechanism such as the one available in
     64    * Java.  Instead, we are stuck with using error codes that must be
     65    * carefully managed and preserved.  However, it is convenient for us to
     66    * model our error mechanism on a Java-like exception mechanism.
     67    * When we assign an error code we are thus `throwing' an error.
     68    *
     69    * The perservation of an error code is done by coding convention.
     70    * Upon a function call if the error code is anything other than
     71    * `FT_Err_Ok', which is guaranteed to be zero, we
     72    * will return without altering that error.  This will allow the
     73    * error to propogate and be handled at the appropriate location in
     74    * the code.
     75    *
     76    * This allows a style of code where the error code is initialized
     77    * up front and a block of calls are made with the error code only
     78    * being checked after the block.  If a new error occurs, the original
     79    * error will be preserved and a functional no-op should result in any
     80    * subsequent function that has an initial error code not equal to
     81    * `FT_Err_Ok'.
     82    *
     83    * Errors are encoded by calling the `FT_THROW' macro.  For example,
     84    *
     85    * {
     86    *   FT_Error  e;
     87    *
     88    *
     89    *   ...
     90    *   e = FT_THROW( Out_Of_Memory );
     91    * }
     92    *
