            Bug ID: 91012
           Summary: filesystem_error no longer includes error_code message
           Product: gcc
           Version: 9.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: libstdc++
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: bhalevy at gmail dot com
                CC: redi at gcc dot gnu.org
  Target Milestone: ---

std::filesystem::filesystem_error::what() changed in version 9 as follows.

test_fse.cc:

#include <iostream>
#include <system_error>
#include <filesystem>

int main()
{
    auto fse = std::filesystem::filesystem_error("op failed",
std::error_code(13, std::system_category()));
    std::cout << "filesystem_error: " << fse.what() << '\n';
}

compile options:

g++ -std=c++17 -o test_fse test_fse.cc -lstdc++fs

Previously, with libstd++fs version 8, the output looks like this:
filesystem_error: filesystem error: op failed: Permission denied

Now, with libstd++fs version 9:
filesystem_error: filesystem error: op failed

I think the culprit is commit 8092d42a27bb2a8c45d8219b95532e92ffa152ac
"PR libstdc++/83306 make filesystem_error no-throw copyable"
Therefore adding Jonathan to the Cc.
