Not that I'm aware of. At least the Forth code simply does this with the
error value in the obp-tftp package:

 net-load dup 0< IF drop 0 THEN

I think the original author of the code just might have tried to return
a unique error number for each error case, so that the error codes from
the TFTP function had to be translated into something else for the final
return value... Anyway, I did not want to touch this logic while
refactoring the code.
