Not a reason for not doing it ;)
No, but breakage is. There has to be a major benefit to justify the
cost, and you, at least, have not provided such a justification.
Well, as I said, existing code like
switch(errno) {
case ENOTSUP:
foo();
break;
case EOPNOTSUP:
bar();
break;
}
That's pretty weak, though.
