Crazy thought --- use C++ overload resolution to pick the right thing
automatically:

 /* Called if we have a XSI-compliant strerror_r.  */
 static char *select_strerror_r (int, char *buf) { return buf; }

 /* Called if we have a GNU strerror_r.  */
 static char *select_strerror_r (char *res, char *) { return res; }

 #ifdef IN_PROCESS_AGENT
    return select_strerror_r (strerror_r (errnum, buf, buflen), buf);
 #else ...
