   the script this PR added (mkerrno.py) is not meant to be used during a build.
   i expect a developer who modified errno.csv to run it to regenerate some 
source files.
   
   otoh, some of existing python scripts in the tools dir seem to be used 
during a build.
   eg. mkallsyms.py, kasan_global.py
