You've brought up a very interesting point.  Can someone just buy the
software that puts the "hooks" in the operating system to provide sockets,
STREAMS, and RFS?   It seems like the /usr/include/sys/errno.h file has
the errors already there to support the function calls.

Following excerpt from /usr/include/sys/errno.h (3.51)
...
/* Errors from 4.2 BSD picked up to support sockets */
/* Note that the numbers are different from 4.2 numbering */

/* non-blocking and interrupt i/o */
#define	EWOULDBLOCK	226		/* Operation would block */
#define	EINPROGRESS	227		/* Operation now in progress */
#define	EALREADY	228		/* Operation already in progress */
/* ipc/network software */

	/* argument errors */
#define	ENOTSOCK	229		/* Socket operation on non-socket */
#define	EDESTADDRREQ	230		/* Destination address required */
#define	EMSGSIZE	231		/* Message too long */
#define	EPROTOTYPE	232		/* Protocol wrong type for socket */
#define	EPROTONOSUPPORT	233		/* Protocol not supported */
#define	ESOCKTNOSUPPORT	234		/* Socket type not supported */
...

	/* operational errors */
#define	ENETDOWN	240		/* Network is down */
#define	ENETUNREACH	241		/* Network is unreachable */
...
#define	ETIMEDOUT	250		/* Connection timed out */
#define	ECONNREFUSED	251		/* Connection refused */

/* should be rearranged */
#define	EHOSTDOWN	252		/* Host is down */
#define	EHOSTUNREACH	253		/* No route to host */
#define	ENOPROTOOPT	254		/* Protocol not available */
