Hmm, this is still wrong. The error message isn't just a function of the locale; it's also dependent on the OS. AIX is now back to expecting "No such file or directory" courtesy of LANG=C when the imcc error is "A file or directory in the path name does not exist." That's English, just not the right English. It looks like this is going to need a more involved fix that doesn't monkey with the locale and just does what IMCC is doing: calling strerror from C code. That would require compiling an intermediate C program and capturing its output in the test script. Last time this was brought up on IRC there wasn't an existing scaffold for doing that easily; has that changed?
