Fixes tag?

We should exchange rc with cc since that's what we get back from
__uv_call(). Technically we always get a cc but for the other functions
it's only ever 0/1 which translates to success/error so rc is ok.

Could you define the CCs in uv.h and check against the constants here so
it's easier to understand that the rc > 1 checks against a "UV was busy
please re-issue the call again" cc?

Maybe also make it explicit for cc 2 and 3 instead of cc > 1
