Yeah, good idea. I will add a couple tests to check the error message
on missing blobs and when trying to write a submodule to a tempfile.
This should cover 3 out of the 4 error() calls changed in this patch.
(The last one would be when ce->mode is unknown. I'm not sure if/how I
can trigger that case.)
