     35  *
     36  *          [ sprintf_args... ]           (argv[0] is a string)

     38  *          [ options, sprintf_args... ]  (argv[0] is an object)
     39  *
     40  * This function normalizes these forms, producing an object with the following
     41  * properties:
     42  *
     43  *    options           equivalent to "options" in third form.  This will never
     44  *    			be a direct reference to what the caller passed in
     45  *    			(i.e., it may be a shallow copy), so it can be freely
     46  *    			modified.
     47  *
     48  *    shortmessage      result of sprintf(sprintf_args), taking options.strict

    101 	 * programmer might prefer to have the error message contain "null" or
    102 	 * "undefined" rather than have the bug in the error path crash the
    103 	 * program (making the first bug harder to identify).  For that reason,
    104 	 * by default VError converts "null" or "undefined" arguments to their
    105 	 * string representations and passes those to extsprintf.  Programmers
    106 	 * desiring the strict behavior can use the SError class or pass the
