// functions instead.

// Thread-safe strerror function with dependable semantics that never fails.
// It will write the string form of error "err" to buffer buf of length len.
// If there is an error calling the OS's strerror_r() function then a message to
// that effect will be printed into buf, truncating if necessary. The final
// result is always null-terminated. The value of errno is never changed.

// Use this instead of strerror_r().
