Error function in effects "is not a function"

See original GitHub issue

There seems to be a regression, or the docs are wrong, regarding the signature of an effect-function.

When attempting to use the third parameter sent to an effect-function (documented as “error” – a function you may call if something goes wrong), there console says:

Uncaught TypeError: error is not a function

(… assuming error is the name I gave the third parameter)

Demo: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/VPEYjj (forked from the effects-demo)
