net-error/sys-error returns strange value

[kosh]

Hello, Lutz. This is bug reports. (and first post)



`net-error' function occasionally returns a strange value when

the function given a number outside the range.

Code Select Expand

(net-error 12)                          ;=> (12 "Listen failed")
(net-error -1)                          ;=> (-1 "(null)")

(net-error 75)                          ;=> (75 "application/pdf")
(net-error 100)                         ;-> Segmentation fault


and `(sys-error 0)' return value is different from the manual.

but program returns:
