Subject: errno question: EWOULDBLOCK

Here's a question for v2:  The errno EWOULDBLOCK, which a
large program I am working on uses, does not seem to be defined
in errno.h in v2.  I am not even sure what EWOULDBLOCK is used for - I just
know that very few C compilers I have tried seem to have any idea what
it is.  It has something to do with Unix socket i/o - I know that much.  I
sneaked a peek at the v1 source code and saw that EWOULDBLOCK
was defined as errno 35, so I substituted the current user of that errno in
my code, which is ESPIPE.  I don't know if that's what I should be doing
or not.  Please advise!

Thanks,
    John Aldrich
