Bug#189011: libc6: Change ENOSPC 28 to /* No space or inodes left on device */

[change@nas.com]

Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.1-10
Severity: normal

Thanks for maintaining Debian's libc6 package. I use it and 
appreciate its importance.

A discussion of Debian bug report 188931 has suggested improving 
how glibc reports when file-systems run out of inodes.

glibc currently returns errno 28, which is defined as 

	"No space left on device"

and is misleading. It should mention inodes.

Please:

1.) Review the Debian bug report at

	http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=188931

2.) and consider changing errno.h to say

#define ENOSPC          28      /* No space or inodes left on device */

Thanks,
Kingsley
