posix_strerror() (convert error number into error string).
- Do not output any error message if any of the function fails with FALSE
return value. The proper way now is to call posix_errno() and
posix_strerror() after encountering an error condition.
- Function not support on a system no longer issue a 'not available' error
but simply don't exist so we can safely use 'function_exists'.
- Fixed protos.
- Use new parameter parsing API.
- posix_uname() may be aware of 'domainname' (GNU extension)
- posix_getgrnam(), posix_getgrgid(): the returned information does no
longer contains mixture of string and numbered keys (hash / array)
but contains key 'member' with an array of all members in a list
(or an empty array). This breaks BC but is the right thing IMHO.
