What I am after is seeing "EXXXXX" as a part of the message with any LANG, including English: LANG=en: "No such file or directory (ENOENT)" LANG=xx: "&((/&=(/%&/(&%/(/)(/&/ ENOENT" ... It could be nice to have a common convention for all languages about the formatting of the error reference, like parentheses around the name and/or placing it rightmost, but this is probably impossible with some languages.
