What happens as far as errno is concerned when an application makes a
read() call against a (say TCP) socket associated with a connection
which has been reset? Is it limited to those errno values listed in the
read() manpage, or does it end-up getting an errno value from those
listed in the recv() manpage? Or, perhaps even one not (presently)
listed in either?
