I'm not sure why developers persist with the same exception message 
across different native functions. It can be real useful for post mortem 
debugging to know exactly which method generated the message. (just from 
exception message)

"bad register save location" is used across saved_oop_result and 
set_saved_oop_result functions. Would have been nice to have a tweak.
Please add a noreg- label to the master bug report.

Approved!

regards,
Sean.
