The C standard only requires EDOM, EILSEQ, and ERANGE, but C
implementations can, and commonly do, define additional macros.

Both C and POSIX specifically permit additional E* macros to
be defined.  I don't see such a permission in the C++ standard,
though I could be missing it.

(I'm a little surprised C++ mandates the POSIX error codes, given
that C++ can be implemented on non-POSIX systems.)
