Well, since you ask :-) I'd prefer my first suggestion, just
because it's simpler. No worries about buffer size
limits, and the message being truncated. If passing a message,
I'd have to be careful with what I'd say there, so it
doesn't confuse the user (strerror says one thing, native
error says something similar but not the same, possibly in
different locales). This probably means I'd just pass the error
number anyway.
