I'm sorry I didn't respond before--it was because I didn't have anything
very useful to say:  I don't know of a comprehensive list (and there
can't be one, because any application can call SysFailMgr with whatever
error code it wants to--it doesn't have to be a number that comes back
from a toolbox  or OS call.

Technical Notes generally do -not- just reproduce information already
available in other manuals; TNs elaborate, explain, correct, clarify,
etc, and in the process they necessarily duplicate some material, but
they refer you to the original source for the rest of the story.
