If you do it as:
	static char undef[] = "undefined";
	char *sys_errlist[] = {
	
	/* lots of entries omitted */
	
	  "no more files",
	  "invalid argument",
	  undef,			/* at least by errno.h */
	  "exec format error"
	};
then the only cost would be 180*4 bytes for the pointers, which
doesn't seem at all unreasonable.
