So i'm implementing this, and want to know
...

How would you like me to raise the error?
Should i add an error handling function to the dwarf_expr_context struct? 
Or just call "error", under the assumption that any libdwarf library we 
write would have error functions of it's own (all the libdwarf's do), and 
that it'll be the typical printf arguments error function.
