--- Comment #2 from Jonathan Wakely <redi at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
A related topic is that we simply don't define the errc enumerators that don't
have a corresponding EXXXX macro, which is non-conforming. The C++ standard
says the enumerators should all be there.
We could do something like this for each enumerator:
#ifdef EFOO
foo = EFOO,
#else
foo = _GLIBCXX_ERRC_ORIGIN + __LINE__,
#endif
Where _GLIBCXX_ERRC_ORIGIN is some value intended to be higher than the highest
errno value on the OS. We only need fewer than 100 errc enumerators so
INT_MAX/2 might be OK.
We can use #line to set the __LINE__ to a fixed value in the file, so that the
constants don't change if we add/remove lines before the errc definition.
