Doesn't func_error die when called? If so, how do the subsequent three
errors get printed?  If not, the name seems a bit misleading...


We have func_echo, func_warn, and func_error for automatic prefixing of
output, and func_fatal_error for non-returning.  This allows multi line
error messages with correct prefix strings to stderr like:

  libtool: Could not determine native path corresponding to
  libtool:   'mingw'
  libtool: Perhaps it doesn't exist.
libtool: Continuing, but running uninstalled executables may not work.

Cheers,
        Gary
