bug#5376: 23.1; dirtrack.el unnecessary errors [PATCH]

[Nathaniel Flath]

That may be better, yes - the only isue with that is when large chunks of input are messaged due to a improper match, which could still be annoying.  However, that is probably fine, and would let the user know if they were just starting with dirtrack.el that their regex was incorrect.

I agree it shouldn't signal an error.  But we turn the `error' into
a `message', so the user is kept informed of the problem.
