 Yes,
 bash-4.2# mkdir /usr/pkg
 mkdir: Failed to make directory "/usr/pkg"; Read-only file system
 bash-4.2# mkdir /usr/pkg/bin
 mkdir: Failed to make directory "/usr/pkg/bin"; File exists
 
 Are there something like "error code reporting precedence" - so the EEXIST
 error has the precedence before EROFS in POSIX?
 
 BR,
