As a warning, UnixLib's behaviour is quite sensitive to the underlying filing system. I have a port of git, which doesn't work due to filename issues. It turns out it has completely different filename issues on RAMFS and HostFS on rpcemu (0.8.9 Mac, RO5.21 of recent vintage). I haven't followed everything through to work out the full details, but the final error (from git-add) that happens on HostFS is it tries to open() a file in a nonexistent directory. git's code will look for ENOENT, backtrack, create the directory and try again. On RAMFS this works OK (the code later falls over elsewhere). On HostFS open() returns EOPSYS, the git error checking code doesn't know what to do with this, and so falls over. HostFS is returning a different error from FileCore, UnixLib isn't matching on that, and so it returns a UnixLib-specific errno. So always worth testing on a range of filing systems, because behaviours can differ.
