Hello  , please review this small fix .

Hotspot still has a few uses of the thread unsafe strerror function.
Most places where strerror has been used previously, were already replaced by os::strerror  (using a errno_to_string error text array).

But a few places remained and should also use better use  os:strerror.

Thanks, Matthias
