(I withdraw the "bunch of") EAGAIN from clone is clearly a distinct error condition than when it is on ENOMEM. I would not see it covered by what C11 expects as that error condition. So the EAGAIN from clone should go to thrd_error, I think, and not be merged with ENOMEM for the C threads implementation.
