Hi,

Ulrich asked you to go to us once your time travel machine was
finished.. is it finished yet ?  ;=)

this is part of the ABI, so we can't change this in 2006...

If ENOTSUP is currently unused and is only there for completeness, then it should be fine to add it.

The functions that should be returning it instead of EOPNOTSUP should be
fixed too.


The two can't be done at the same time. In fact, the two probably can't be done without a period of quite a few *years* between them.
