If you have an error being ignored accidentally and using errcheck, you need to file a bug for them with a test case for it.

If you mean that programmers caught the error and just made it "go away", convincing the checker that it was handled but in fact it was not, that's not something a language can solve. There is no amount of "forcing" a programmer to handle an error that they can't bypass.
