I had this obscure error when writing tests.

     0:02.21 LOG: Thread-1 ERROR Unexpected exception 2147942487

And nothing else.

It seemed related to rust gecko bindings:

     servo/components/style/gecko_bindings/structs_release.rs
     8989:        NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE = 2147942487,

After some research, I could see that it was coming from a missing leading '/' when doing this:

     const testserver = createHttpServer();
     gPort = testserver.identity.primaryPort;
     testserver.registerPathHandler("url/path/", handleRequest);

Would it be possible to raise some explicit error message in that case?
