The whole stack is one BIG mess, but we do not care anymore. :)
It seems that getting a nice stack is the objective for R2. But actually,
libnet.so will (or should) be reused, so that one could be cleaned up now. Any
volunteers?

It is used to report the error status, I think. ;)

I will try to find out how it is used exactly (or if it is used at all). Why is
there h_errno_tls then?
Is our POSIX errno thread-specific or global?
