Commit Message

We would overrun the error_text array if we hit a TIMEOUT condition,
because we were using the error code "ETIMEDOUT" (which is 110) as an
array index.

We fix the problem by correcting the array index and by providing a
function to retrieve error messages rather than accessing the array
directly. The function includes a bounds check that prevents the array
from being overrun.

The pointer itself is returned by value and you cannot return a const
value. I mean, you can but it does not have an effect. Only pointed
memory should be const (const const char*).
