'Could', not 'should'. The toolkit needs to work in the absence of 
Error.pm too (and does on most platforms; e.g., I don't have it 
installed).

It may turn out though that the missing comma is silent on most (all?) 
non-Windows platforms or if Error.pm is installed, and therefore wasn't 
noticed by most people.
