From The RT System itself

die() messages are targeted at human consumption. It is OK to DWIM in
this situation. Most other usages of I/O are for consumption by other
agents. And I know no other agents (except possibly some non-DOSISH
filesystems) which will happily survive \x-mutiliated data.

But of course, eventually each I/O channel should be able to specify
(one way or another) a "fallback" mechanism for out-of-range errors.
