I wanted to print errno too. Of cause it's possible to get it from
coredump - but I think it's easier if you get buildbot reply to see

It needs a template and unlink() call.. I can do it.
I initially thought about memfd_create(), can change it that way.
The only downside is that it will be syscall(NR_memfd_create,...)
