Comment:

 I was actually suggesting reverting wp_insert_user() to 2.0 behavior, but
 I appreciate that has its own difficulties.    Thanks for the quick
 response.

 Another option is to make multiple versions of this function, one with
 verbose error reporting and one without.  wp_insert_user_ex() would return
 int|WP_Error, and wp_insert_error() would continue to return 0 on error.
 I expect there is more code out there expecting the 2.0 behavior than the
 3.0 behavior.
