Could you please put this on the wiki? We want a page with both:
* a description of how the errno code works;
* consequent on this, information on how to go about adding an errno value
to glibc. Such information will be useful every time a new errno number
is added to the Linux kernel.
Having studied the matter, does your review conclude Andreas's patch to be
correct and so appropriate to go in now?
