/**
 * This class represents the return value from an emulated system call,
 * including any errno setting.
 *
 * On some platforms, the return value and errno are encoded in a
 * single signed integer.  A value less than zero but greater than
 * -4096 indicates an error, and the value is the negation of the
 * errno value.  Otherwise, the call was successful and the integer is
 * the return value.  (Large negative numbers are considered
 * successful to allow syscalls to return pointers to high memory,
 * e.g., stack addresses.)  See, for example, Appendix A of the AMD64
 * ABI spec at http://www.x86-64.org/documentation/abi.pdf.
 *
 * Other platforms use a more complex interface, returning a value and
 * an error code in separate registers.
 *
 * This class is designed to support both types of interfaces.
