You can also test it with 'zsh', 'ksh', 'ash', and 'dash' on a glibc system.

IFF they're installed.

If it works with these shells, it will likely also pass with /bin/sh on
various systems.

Now, do you plan to convert this into a gnulib module?

Not real soon.  Tho with some infrastructure help, it would happen sooner.

One interesting thing I discovered:

    132 (ERFKILL. . . . ) == Unknown error 132

It just means that your libc does not have the string for ERFKILL. This
string was added in glibc/sysdeps/gnu/errlist.c on 2009-11-14.

It seemed odd that it would be added to glibc's headers and not the .c file.
