On this note, ExceptionUtils#getCause(Throwable)/(Throwable, String[])
is a candidate for this, although these methods are deprecated.  The
only problem is that an empty String array is currently treated
differently than a null String[], so we can't merge the methods
without breaking a test case.  If it were up to me I would make the
change, break the test case, and document the difference, but as the
methods are deprecated anyway I know others might feel differently.
