Just a note in case anyone reviews this thread later:
I chose to return 127 rather than an errno value because it eventually
gets set as the exit status and bash, at least, uses 127 for "function not
defined". ENOSYS makes more sense internally and does "fit" as an exit
status so changing to ENOSYS does make more sense.

Yes, looks great to me. Thanks!
