[DGD] error recovery with atomic functions

[bart at wotf.org]

Hmm, that addresses a slightly annoying issue for me ('magic strings' in error
messages showing up in dgd's output when an error is fatal etc), thanks.

On another note, I noticed you made a change to no longer call operator
functions in builtin object types. Seems I did have a use for that, I like
ob<-"/builtin/function" over object_name(ob) == "/builtin/function#-1", but
this no longer works. Oh well, guess I'll deal :-)

Bart.
