You can import `format_err` directly for this. ;)

Absolutely great that you added this! At the same time however, you
could've just added it in patch 04 where you introduced all the other
changes.

The hunks in this file ('vma2pbs.rs') can most likely just be shoved
into patch 04 with `git commit --fixup=...` followed by
`git rebase -i --autosquash ...`.

Alternatively, you can also use `git absorb` [0] instead of making
manual fixups.

This doesn't just go for the hunks here - check if this applies to some
other changes you've made as well.

Fixups and rebasing is a great way to keep your own history clean if
you're not already doing that :)

As mentioned in my response to your cover letter, we usually don't
import `anyhow::Result` but instead import `anyhow::Error` - so you
don't need to fully qualify `Error` here once it's imported.
