ttyname_r is specified in POSIX
<http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/ttyname.html>.
The return value is specified like this:
"If successful, the ttyname_r() function shall return zero.
 Otherwise, an error number shall be returned to indicate the error."

This means, ttyname_r should return the error number. Whether it
additionally stores it in errno, is not specified.

The Hurd implementation uses a return value of -1 in some cases.
This is wrong. Find a fix attached.
