I hope not. If you want to handle a specific error, what you should do is
file an issue to expose that error as a type (and thus make it part of the
API of the package), not to match strings - precisely *because* they aren't
part of the stable API, if they are not exposed, so shouldn't be relied on.

For your specific case, have you tried `errors.Is(err,
syscall.Errno(syscall.ENETUNREACH))`?
