This is an error number defined in sys/errno.h, e.g.:
rochebonne#/usr/src/1.5S/src/usr.bin/make>grep 55 /usr/include/sys/errno.h
#define ENOBUFS 55 /* No buffer space available */
rochebonne#/usr/src/1.5S/src/usr.bin/make>grep 48 /usr/include/sys/errno.h
#define EADDRINUSE 48 /* Address already in use */
