      Right now mongod calls functions like fassert() when it finds a fatal condition. This yields a brief message in the log followed by at least one stack trace, which often makes users think they've run into a mongod bug.

      It would be nice to be able to produce more informative error messages whenever mongod finds a fatal error. Ideally, one would be able to call things like this in the code:

      fatal() << “some message”;
fassert(12345, condition) << “some message”;
fassertNoTrace(12345, condition) << “some message”;
