Have no strong opinion here. AFAIU the errno argument is only used to generate a message so there should be no consistency issue, and it would be more consistent with the win32. How about moving both (posix and win32) before the conditional statements readjusting the return value and use errno and err directly?

Regarding win32, the issue is that we don't get an errno value but a Windows-specific error value from GetLastError(). I don't think error_setg_errno() understands those values. Therefore, for win32 we don't have much choice but to use the "preprocessed" errno value. I don't really see a consistency issue. It's just a human-readable error message and I think we should be as specific as we can be; it's just that it depends on the OS how much that is.

It basically uses https://developer.gnome.org/glib/stable/glib-Windows-Compatibility-Functions.html#g-win32-error-message to get a message string from the error code.
