[PATCH 1/2] Revert "strtol.3: EXAMPLES: Simplify errno checking"

[Alejandro Colomar]

This reverts commit 93f369892aeab4d56b92962224e318f739ee2455.

That commit was wrong.  It is necessary to check both the return value
_and_ errno to determine that strtol(3) failed.  In fact, the checks
are still slightly incorrect, since strtol(3) could succeed and
return 0, but still set errno, to something other than EINVAL.
