Thanks for both tests, this is very interesting. In GNU/Linux we expect the
function to return ERANGE in order to keep reallocating memory until the
function is satisfied. But in NetBSD it seems like they use a different
approach of returning "non-zero" and setting locerr to ENOBUFS. I could not
find the man for this function in NetBSD. What version of NetBSD are you using?
