The sentence
  "It supercedes TIP #89 by providing support for the error options
  dictionary introduced in Tcl 8.5 by TIP #90."
in the abstract of TIP #329 makes me think this might not be possible
for Tcl 8.4. It might be possible to implement a try proc that is
compatible with TIP #329 on >= 8.5 and similar enough for our purposes
on 8.4, though.

It's BSD, so that certainly is an option.
