Thanks. I've got one more, moving some prereq code out of strerror into
strerror-override (and particularly needed to make strerror_r work on
mingw, if I understand correctly, although I have not yet tested mingw,
so there may be more fallout). See below.

Actually, "$ERRNO_H" is non-empty on cygwin 1.5, but that also lacks
__xpg_strerror_r. Cygwin 1.7 does not need a replacement <errno.h>.
