If we can't use "res=" to carry more than 0/1 then this seems reasonable.
Paul,
But we can't do this. The field name dictionary says this is used to convey
success/fail. It is hard coded in the field interpretation table to look for
0/1 and interpret that. Interpeting this field will now produce an error
message. And "result" is a searchable field.
As I suggested a few emails back, let's just use errno or something not
already taken in the dictionary. NACK.
