[Bug libc/364] New: strerror_r does not copy error string to user supplied buffer

[dancasimiro at alum dot rpi dot edu]

According to the specification, strerror_r should copy the error string to the
user supplied buffer. 
(http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/strerror.html)

The current version of strerror_r does not copy *anything* unless there is a
problem.
