Well, actually I first wrote the thing without the system.h helper, but
since autoproject gave me one, I figured it might not be a bad idea to
use it for some portability. Perhaps "don't fix it if it's not broken"
would apply here :)

In any case, where does OS X specify the error codes, if not error.h?
For debian, I include <errno.h> and that's all (although now system.h
does that for me). Since its OS X's libc library that will be returning
errors from fopen(), it also has to have some way of interpreting the
errors, right? (using strerror I hope).
