// Unhelpfully this requires us to pass in a buffer, but we don't know how
// big to make it to reliably be able to convert all possible errno values,
// and the implementation is permitted to return localised strings so the
// maximum possible length may vary depending on the current locale
// settings.
//
// If the buffer passed is too small, then with older glibc errno gets
// stomped on, so growing the buffer on error and retrying isn't a great
// answer. Hence we only use strerror_r() if we don't have a better
// alternative.
//
// Another reason to have support for alternative approaches is that
// strerror_r() is marked as "optional" by POSIX.
//
// A further complication is there's a GNU-specific strerror_r() with a
// different return value type.
//
// The strerror_r(3) man page on Linux suggests a buffer size of 1024
// characters, noting that glibc uses this size for strerror(). The
// actual longest on Linux in English is EILSEQ which needs 50 bytes.

// number should be returned on error, but glibc < 2.13 returns -1 and sets
// errno.
