From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung....@lge.com>

glibc-2.16 starts to mark the function with attribute
warn_unused_result so that it can cause a build warning.

Since GNU version of strerror_r() can return a pointer to a string
without setting @buf, check the return value and copy/truncate it to
our buffer if needed.
