Description:
On windows we would like to see the perror utility return mysql, posix and win32 errors.  Currently it doesn't, for example:

E:\mysql-5.1.23-rc-winx64\bin>perror 23
OS error code  23:  Too many open files in system

In actual fact Win32 error code 23 means 
ERROR_CRC Data error (cyclic redundancy check).

As more engines (and even InnoDB) will use Win32 API, this
perror bug will become more important to customers, support engineers.

How to repeat:
perror <some win32 error code>
