The STATUS_ILLEGAL_FUNCTION name was rather misleading to me since it doesn't
indicate at all that it's supposed to be pipe-related
(however it's within the numeric range of many other pipe status codes!).
So, given that this is mainly a pipe status code after all I'd say that's
the best we can achieve right now.
Of course, what really matters is what the receiving Win32 side *usually*
expects after we encountered ESPIPE, and this might turn out to differ
from your conversion ;).
(is there any indication that RedAlert checks for a specific status code??)
