If we want to combine them in Scheme level, we have to change the name
"pointer->procedure" in C level, since it's registered with SCM_DEFINE.
Dunno if it breaks the ABI too.
I think it's fine to make it two. And maybe keep
pointer->procedure-with-errno in future version (say, 3.0), which may
change ABI a lot. It's inevitable to change ABI in major version number
change usually.
