Yes, unfortunate.  I will add Julian in the cc list to have some more

This can for sure be coded, but the error matching code/logic is IMO
quite complex already, and moreover, this logic will be tool and error
dependent, as the extra message matching is done by the tool, not by
the m_errormgr.c common core module.
