From noticing the testsuite failure, I found what looks like a bug in
ne_strerror. On x86 Solaris, strerror_r does not truncate strings.
Instead, it returns 34 (ERANGE) if the buffer is not large enough (the
man page here is not helpful, although the letter of the doc clearly
allows this behavior).
Only way I can think of to fix this is to check for the failure, and it
a failure occurs, to alloc a larger buffer and retry until strerror_r
succeeds, and then play like it was glibc's strerror and strncpy the
result back into the original buffer (this time truncating it).
I'll probably write a patch soon.
