Comment (by axeld):

 I haven't had the time to actually test your changes, I just looked at the
 patch.

 Anyway, the point I was trying to make is that it is '''never''' a good
 idea to assume a certain error code in such a way. The error code was just
 an example. Another example would be that we'd memorize thread IDs in the
 kernel, and find_thread() would then return B_THREAD_EXITED if the thread
 is no longer with us -- I hope you get the idea now :-)

 The BeBook is not a definitive reference to the Haiku API, and is in
 itself not complete either. Fact is, error codes may change.
