I think the throws started to appear when the talk of an exception system was starting to grow...
I think that we should make an exception system with support in the syntax/semantics, then change all the functions to throw. :) But that's me.

Looking through the functions in the System module it looks like a big mix between throwing an exception on error or returning the errno from the function. Is there a good reason for this mix? Is this something that should be fixed (other than more documentation on which functions behaves how)?
