Ah, you just beat me to it... OTOH you missed the ruby binding, see
ruby/ext/guestfs/handle.c.

In my local version, ignore_value() was not needed in the lua bindings
Did you get a build failure without it?

In other places were strerror_r is used, the size of the buffer is 256.
Can you please adapt it? (Mostly so we have the same code everywhere.)

This one is too hard for me to fix.  I need to include the gnulib
directory (to get the replacement strerror_r) otherwise I see:

handle.c: In function 'guestfs_int_ruby_event_to_string':
handle.c:285:5: error: ignoring return value of 'strerror_r', declared
with attribute warn_unused_result [-Werror=unused-result]
     strerror_r (errno, err, sizeof err);
     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

but I couldn't work out how to add that without breaking Ruby's
conftests.

In any case Ruby is irretrievably broken with pthread, see recent
nbdkit commits ...

In fact no I don't need it.

BUT I do need to add the gnulib directory so we get the replacement
strerror_r, because the original strerror_r from glibc is declared
with warn_unused_result:

lua-guestfs.c: In function 'guestfs_int_lua_create':
lua-guestfs.c:178:5: error: ignoring return value of 'strerror_r',
declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Werror=unused-result]
     strerror_r (errno, err, sizeof err);
     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Anyway, I dropped ignore_value but still added gnulib/lib to the
include path.

I pushed this with the changes above, plus err[256].

Thanks,

Rich.
