NAME
strerror -- map an error number to an error message string
SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h>
char *strerror (int errnum)
DESCRIPTION
Returns a pointer to a string containing an error message, the
contents of which are implementation defined. The implementation
shall behave as if no library function calls strerror. The string
pointed to shall not be modified by the caller and is only guaranteed
to be valid until a subsequent call to strerror.
BUGS
Requires that the system have sys_errlist and sys_nerr.
