	The System Error handler isn't responsible for handling file-system
or resource manager errors, and to expect it to do so is asking a little
much; generally it should be up to the application to respond to a file
system error, post a meaningful message, and handle it appropriately.

	The System Error handler itself cuts in when a truly fatal
error has occurred; odd address, out of memory, and illegal instruction
are typical errors to see. In this case, the system is extremely unstable,
and the System Error handler needs to be able to do its thing using
a bare minimum of system resources.

	This is true.
