Glad to hear that it's working.

I'm curious though, any idea what went wrong with the bits/errno.h file?
It looks like one of those platform dependent files.  Changing
/usr/include/errno.h to include /usr/include/errno.h would have made
that line effectively do nothing, so bits/errno.h would seem to be
unnecessary.

Or am I reading this all wrong (no comments from MCA please)  ;^)
