Who is "we"?
I was going to ask the same, but that page already describes other
errors like that. If only for consistency, and avoiding a complete
rewrite of that ERRORS section, I applied the patch as is.
But yes, "we" doesn't sound like very technical. Maybe we should fix this.
FWIW, failing with ENOMEM in this case may seem weird, but this is what
POSIX prescribes.
Thanks,
Alex
