dnl since on glibc systems, strerror_r is replaced only for signature
dnl issues, and perror is just fine. Rather, we only want to
dnl replace perror if strerror_r was replaced for a content fix.
if test "$ERRNO_H:$REPLACE_STRERROR_0" != :0; then
dnl The system's perror() cannot know about the new errno values we add
dnl to <errno.h>, or any fix for strerror(0). Replace it.
