Went more with your fix, there's not much point in using the C API
here. Should probably remove the use of it nearly entirely from the .cpp
file (save for wrap/unwrap() use). But man, the 'class Error' usage is
one major ugly pain.

Ah, that one was actually easier to fix. There's no need to get the base
object at all, so it's just a one-line change.

Pushed.

Thanks again for looking!
