I encountered an error today (can't repeat) on SunOS 5.8:
--test that we read consecutive LFs properly CREATE TEMP TABLE testnl (a int, b text, c int);
+ ERROR: could not open relation 1663/16384/37713: Interrupted system call
The reason I guess is the open() call is interrupted by a signal (what
signal BTW?). This error may be specific to SunOS/Solaris, but POSIX does
say that an EINTR is possible on open(), close(), read(), write() and also
the fopen() family:

We have patched read()/write(), shall we do so to open()/close() and also
fopen() family? Patching files other than fd.c seems unnecessary for two
reasons: (1) they are not frequently exercised; (2) they don't have the
basic errno-check code there.
