wrong errno exists in "winex" . Unfortunately i do not know more.
When i test "winex", then "winex" internal errno==0 always, but
system errno, which show strace is correct. "winex" report
similar error "Can't create directory tralla-tralla-trallalla".
Error disappears when "winex" uses pthread , i don' t know
correct solution.
IMHO that is buggy errno wrapper
