I guess I was just lucky that part didn't fail :-D On the other hand, it couldn't legally return 0 anyway, could it? That would have been a slightly more sensible error code, IMHO, anyway, but it probably came from some silly standard somewhere.

Apple's BSD derivative came out of the main tree several years ago, and it wasn't really maintained for a few years, so it missed out on a lot of bug fixes and such. They've tried to catch up on a lot of that and been mildly successful, but it still has a ways to go.
