I was looking for a standard definition, so that I could address:
#define EPROTONOSUPPORT 37
#define EPROTOTYPE 37
as found in /sys/include/ape/errno.h, which broke a module construct.
I wasn't suggesting that I wanted to use the numeric values instead.
I'm not sure how I want to solve the original problem, given that
Charles pointed out a similar duplication in Linux, was it?
#define EWOULDBLOCK EAGAIN
or some such, from memory.
