It's bad spelling. "Errar" (to miss, to get wrong) is a very irregular verb. The best form would be "yerra" (3ª pers. sing. pres. indic.).

It doesn't look that irregular to me. Isn't it basically an e -> ie radical change, but e -> ye because the syllable taking the stress is at the start?

Cuando un verbo cambia en la raíz (err - ye) es irregular.

errar. 1. ‘Equivocar(se)’ y ‘vagar por un lugar’. Verbo irregular: v. conjugación modelo (→ apéndice 1, n.º 33).

Vale, pero no me parece más irregular que, por ejemplo, pensar.
