Given how we use these system calls as triggers for random kernel operations, I don't think adhering to posix standard is necessary or possible. Using an error code which isn't listed in the man page isn't particularly high in the list of discrepancies. Again, I'm not against changing it but I'd like to see better rationales. On one side, we have "it's been this way for a long time and there's nothing particularly broken about it". I'm not sure the arguments we have for the other side is strong enough yet.
