errno is not a variable, but a pointer to a function.  This is to
allow sperate threads having their own copy of errno.

Perhaps you could extract the command line used to compile fnmatch.c
and use the -E option instead of the -c option to get the output from
the preprocessor.  Then you can see how errno is being (incorrectly)
substituted.
