(1998, this time.) There's some more suggestions in a reply from Dave: but I don't want to post them without asking...

#define EXDEV           18      /* Cross-device link */
#define EXDIR           ??      /* required number is ex-directory */

#define ENOTTY          25      /* Not a typewriter */
#define ESNOTTY         ??      /* the programmer is a bit stuck-up */

#define EDOM            33      /* Math argument out of domain of func */
#define ESUB            ??      /* Sub has safeworded. */

#define EDOTDOT         73      /* RFS specific error */
#define EDASHDASH       ??      /* Morse-specific error */

Me? Go right ahead. I probably still have the mail (being a pack-rat) but I can't easily get at it right now.

OK, updated.

#define ERANGE 34 /* Math result not representable */
#define ESTRANGE ?? /* Math result doesn't even make sense */

The possibilities appear to be almost endless. (#define ENDLESS ?? /* Infinite loop detected */)

#define ELAST   92 /* Must equal largest errno */
#define ELASTIC ?? /* Largest errno can increase over time */

#define ENOLINK 91 /* Link has been severed */
#define ENOWEB  ?? /* http://www.enoweb.co.uk/ */

#define ENOENT  2 /* No such file or directory */
#define ENOEXIT ? /* Brian Eno has left the building */

#define EIDRM 82 /* Identifier removed */
#define EDRM  ?? /* Identifier owned by Sony */

#define ENOTSOCK 38 /* Socket operation on non-socket */
#define ENOTSHOE ?? /* Shoe operation on non-shoe */

#define ESRCH  3 /* No such process */
#define ERSRCH ? /* Further research needed, retry in 5 years */

#define ECONNREFUSED 61 /* Connection refused */
#define ECONNFUSED  ?? /* Programmer is an idiot and can't spell */

... but in fact there's already EDOOFUS for that last one.
