Hmmm... both would be sufficient, of course. For just this single purpose a callback could be less intrusive. But in general I like C APIs where each(!) function stores detailed error information in the context object and then just returns the numerical and less detailed return code. The caller then can be happy just about the numerical return code or call a getter to retrieve the detailed error message. So, in the long-term I would like to see the second one also in POPT...
