 No, rb_sys_fail(mesg) call strerror(errno)

 mesg is used like this :

    if (mesg) {
	volatile VALUE tmp = rb_str_inspect(rb_str_new2(mesg));

	buf = ALLOCA_N(char, strlen(err)+RSTRING(tmp)->len+4);
	sprintf(buf, "%s - %s", err, RSTRING(tmp)->ptr);
    }
    else {
	buf = ALLOCA_N(char, strlen(err)+1);
	strcpy(buf, err);
    }
