Is there a reson (such as meeting spec.) that cam_open_btl et. al. don't
return an error code, but just stick a string in cam_errbuf?

I'm using an application which uses the CAM passthrough drivers, and
basically tries to grab everything on a given bus, and I'd like to be able
to distinguish a genuine failure from simply one caused by the device not
being there.

I've looked at camcontrol.c, and it doesn't deal with this, it simply
prints the cam_errbuf and exits.

I could always just hack camlib to do what I want, but if there's a better,
or more standard solution I'd prefer that.

Andrew.
