Ralf Schmitt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment:

my manpage (debian testing) states:

POSIX.1-2001  permits strerror() to set errno if the call encounters an
error, but does not specify what value should be returned as the  func‐
tion  result  in  the  event  of an error.  On some systems, strerror()
returns NULL if the error number is unknown.  On  other  systems,  str‐
error()  returns  a string something like "Error nnn occurred" and sets
errno to EINVAL if the error number is unknown.

So, I think this patch should be rejected.
