Hi Julian, in HS we use a large array of error strings :
8148425: strerror() function is not thread-safe
https://hg.openjdk.org/jdk9/jdk9/hotspot/rev/1537c752a7f5

In case we want to replace strerror in java_md_common.c (by strerror_r or by an array like we use in HS), that would be another separate issue.
