Renumbering could blow people away that actually have
compiled code lying around unless you get them to
recompile.
If you actually use error values rather than the symbols,
you're living a precarious life, vis a vis porting.

What would be safe here? Renumber all the error codes to match
NetBSD (I'm sure all *BSDs are identical, but I guess I ought to
check) and submit the changed header file to Bell Labs so that a
new copy of libap.a can be generated to match?
Is this enough/everything needed?
