Description:
1. perror.c uses HAVE_SYS_ERRLIST, but configure does not check for sys_errlist
2. perror in 5.1 prints only the first found error, in 4.1 - all of them

How to repeat:
mysql-5.1/extra % ./perror 124
OS error code 124:  Wrong medium type
mysql-4.1/extra % ./perror 124
OS error code 124:  Wrong medium type
MySQL error code 124: Wrong index given to function
