+ * wasi-libc's errno is a TLS variable, exposed directly via
+ * errno.h. if we use it here, LLVM may lower it differently,
+ * depending on enabled features like atomcs and bulk-memory.
+ * we tweak the way to access errno here in order to make us
+ * compatible with both of threaded and non-threaded applications.
+ * __errno_location() should be reasonably stable because
+ * it was introduced as an alternative ABI for non-C software.
