See the discussion in bug 957666, specifically bug 957666 comment 8.
It's unclear to me what a fix here would look like. Presumably just something more intelligible than what we're seeing in bug 957666?

So, there are two basic problems here:

1 - The error numbers are printed as uint32_t, which is annoying to map back to NS_ERROR_FOO.
2 - The file/line information is lost.

I started hacking on some solutions to this, and then remembered that this whole setup is really broken. I think we should wait on some upcoming architecture improvements before tackling this.
