See Niels comment.

No, we are in fact really using glibc's headers.  We do this in a conscious
and at the same time sneaky way, but I know what I am doing, so that's ok ;)

I have not even decided yet if we are going to use the real glibc for example
for physmem, or not.  That depends a bit on how modular we can make use of
glibc itself (ie, prevent inclusion of stream I/O package).

Nope, we are really using errno.h with _GNU_SOURCE 1.

Is it by chance that you are not using the GNU C Library?

Thanks,
