Dokan needs to be more descriptive with it's error.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Mount a file system with dokan
2. Kill the process without unmounting
3. Try to mount it again.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Something like "Dokan can't mount that because it can't get a drive letter" or 
"You need to clean up your last session with dokanctl /u DRIVE:".

Instead I see:
"Dokan failed with error: -5"

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.4.0 on Windows 7

Please provide any additional information below.

This is something better.  It would display the error name and number instead 
of just the number.  It's hard to search google for a single negative number, 
whereas you get a lot more results for "DOKAN_MOUNT_ERROR"

Oooh, sorry, I forgot to mention that I haven't tried that patch as I'm at home 
and don't have access to a Windows machine here.

Also it adds -6, the DOKAN MOUNT POINT ERROR.

Also, #define DOKAN_VERSION_ERROR -7 /* Requested an incompatible version */
