Michael Santos ca0d6f12b4 constants: return {error, unuspported}
Return {error, unsupported} if an atom is used as an argument and the
constant the atom represents does not exist on the current platform.

The previous behaviour was inconsistent and non-deterministic. The
constant might:

* return {error,einval}. System return values could not be distinguished
  from alcove return values.

* cause an exception

* be silently ignored
