error numbers

A few ewiki error messages are kept uninformative to prevent abuse of
security (misconfiguration) leaks through visitors. Usually you will find
an error number besides (in the tradition of OS/2 ;-), which you can then
lookup here:


ERROR #0257: is triggered by fragments/strike_register_globals to signalise
   that your PHP interpreter is still configured with register_globals
   enabled. The whole purpose of fragments/strike_... is to prevent variable
   injection from outside. Suddenly this is what happened if you've seen this
   message - but if you've discovered it yourself, then the reason for this
   security problem is a bogus extension plugin, which simply tried to
   reinsert values from one innovocation to another in a non-standard (too
   direct) way.
   Simply disable register_globals and unload the fragments/strike_...
   script to get rid of this error.

You cannot modify the README file, but anyhow any ideas or suggestion should as usually get filed on BugReports, UserSuggestions or even better the README.Discussion.
