I'm not sure what the question is exactly :-) Is that proj_context_errno() 
doesn't return an error in that case ?
That's related to the error being emitted from the new code emitting C++ 
exceptions, which are caught by the C wrapper. It doesn't set errno style 
errors currently. I'm not a big fan of the errno approach, and find the proper 
error string currently emitted to be more expressive, but that can be 
discussed if some harmonization should be done.
