+        This exception is thrown to signal generic errno failures.
+
+        \todo make where and err accessors and make the member vars private
+
+        \idea Add a template class derived from SystemException which
+        takes the error number as a numeric argument. This allows
+        catching specific errno conditions: ErrnoException<EPIPE> etc.

+        \idea Add a generic error thrower which takes the origin
+        string and errno value as an argument and will throw a
+        corresponding template class instance. This would just be a
+        big switch statement containing all possible errno values,
+        probably created using some macro metaprogramming.
