The whole problem is rather elegantly solved by switching to 'listfile'
(which is so vastly better than listf it's not funny (imo)). Observe:
:showvar @cierr@
CIERROR = 0
HPCIERR = 0
HPCIERRCOL = 0
HPCIERRMSG =
:listf foo,2
Non-existent file. (CIERR 907)
: showvar @cierr@
CIERROR = 907
HPCIERR = 907
HPCIERRCOL = 0
HPCIERRMSG = Non-existent file. (CIERR 907)
: errclear
: listfile foo,2
Non-existent MPE named file "FOO.PUB.DONNA". (CIWARN 920)
: showvar @cierr@
CIERROR = 920
HPCIERR = -920
HPCIERRCOL = 0
HPCIERRMSG = Non-existent MPE named file "!". (CIWARN 920)
