That way, the rx-errors counter can be used for folks who just care
that the packet was not correctly received, and those that care about
the details can look at the individual errors (and sum them up in various
configurations due to personal taste, etc.)

Look at http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2665.html
for a more finer breakdown.

rx/tx_errors may be further broken down.
