Comma splices:

The one piece of information I was curious about that this (quite clear,
thank you) commit message is missing is what changed in the intervening
time. Is this just about keeping up with upstream to make it easy to
keep up later, or has upstream made any useful changes? E.g. did any
API or behaviors get better?
Related: do we have to worry about in-tree users taking advantage of
improved API and packagers forgetting to add a dependency on the new
version? Do we declare the minimal required Error.pm version somewhere
(e.g. in the INSTALL file)?

Most of the added lines are documentation, so this diffstat doesn't look
half-bad.
Thanks for writing it.
