It's not the right way of fixing the problem.  The right way is to
make sure you don't have any variables or fields named `errno' and
blame all the relevant stupid standard organisations for allowing
redefining errno to something else.

That'll be in 0.3.  If you need or want the (large) patches for that,
I can send them to you.
