> 
> A convention of some programmers is to emit a log warning when a resource fails to \
> close. Granted, such a condition is an error, but there's no reasonable recourse to \
> the failure. Using IOUtils.closeQuietly() is very useful but all information about \
> the success/failure is hidden. Returning Throwable will give insight into the error \
> for diagnostic purposes. This change will be compatible with today's usage since \
> the method currently returns void.
