Hmm, doesn't look like a full replacement.  Ours uses FormatMessage
for errors unknown to the native strerror, while gnulib's
returns "(undocumented error %d)".  Don't know if gnulib might be
interested in our version, though to me it sounds like our version is
more useful for Windows ports; it might be worth it to ask them and
contribute it.
