Admittedly, I should have read your original post more closely.  The program your calling with system fails, not the system call itself, so eval would not catch this.  Have you considered using the backtick operator and inspect the output for errors? This might not be feasible if the called program has a large amount of output that might mimic what error text you're looking for.
