Ack, okay. I can't trigger it with a fresh or my /usr/obj but in any

ENXIO usually is reserved for hardware errors when a device disappears
for block I/O contexts. So I'm not sure that this theory is so good.
But shell error exit statuses are largely independent of errnos.

Thank you, I was indeed stretching to make error no 6 work for me in this
context by thinking it was really a mis identitied file or directory not
found. However, if someone's going to return 6, then they'll return a 6,
nothing I can do about it other than expect it again sometime.
