Thanks for the patch; however, the current state of things in this area is
intentional. error is LGPL, whereas progname is GPL. RMS does not want
additional baggage accompanying the error module, so an LGPL user must
provide their own replacement program_name, and a GPL user should manually
be using the progname module.
