I agree but then we need convince IEEE and X/Open.  The current
standards have no concept of EPFNOSUPPORT.  Maybe if this would
have been fixed long ago by the CSRG, IEEE and X/Open would have
had the right errno to begin with.  As it stands now I think we
need to live with the admittedly poorer EAFNOSUPPORT.
