I just realized that if SRFI 170 mandates no other properties except
'errno (a symbol) and 'message (a string), it gives the caller
everything that most programming languages' OS APIs give.

'errno can be authentic on Unix and synthetic on Windows. Most users,
most of the time, will be fine with either. IIRC Python and/or Go
sythesize errnos also.

If we can agree to supply that mimimum information, we are free to
figure out 'set, 'subset, 'code/number, 'name/symbol and the other
properties at our leisure; they won't be a blocker for SRFI 170.
