Have you made sure that the generated sysdeps/gnu/errlist.c is unchanged 
by this patch?  And sysdeps/mach/hurd/bits/errno.h (you might need to 
figure out what commands to run by hand for that one, in the absence of a 
way to build a cross compiler and glibc for Hurd).  (NaCl also generates 
bits/errno.h - not checked in for NaCl - from errno.texi, but that port 
should be going away soon.)
