You most definitely do not need to make a copy of errno. As proof, we
don't make copies of it anywhere in APR, and it works on every platform
we have tried.

While errno is not a simple variable, compilers are smart enough to
treat it as if it is a simple variable, so just 'return errno' works
everywhere.
