65a32477 40?S: This variable holds what Strerror is defined as to translate an error
959f3c4c 41?S: code condition into an error message string. It could be 'strerror'
65a32477 42?S: or a more complex macro emulating strerror with sys_errlist[], or the

43?S: "unknown" string when both strerror and sys_errlist are missing.

45?C:HAS_STRERROR (STRERROR):
46?C: This symbol, if defined, indicates that the strerror routine is
47?C: available to translate error numbers to strings. See the writeup
48?C: of Strerror() in this file before you try to define your own.
49?C:.
50?C:HAS_SYS_ERRLIST (SYSERRLIST):
51?C: This symbol, if defined, indicates that the sys_errlist array is
52?C: available to translate error numbers to strings. The extern int
53?C: sys_nerr gives the size of that table.
54?C:.
55?C:HAS_SYS_ERRNOLIST (SYSERRNOLIST):
56?C: This symbol, if defined, indicates that the sys_errnolist array is
57?C: available to translate an errno code into its symbolic name (e.g.
58?C: ENOENT). The extern int sys_nerrno gives the size of that table.
59?C:.
60?C:Strerror:
61?C: This preprocessor symbol is defined as a macro if strerror() is
62?C: not available to translate error numbers to strings but sys_errlist[]
63?C: array is there.
