Extended attribute interfaces

I'm about to introduce ENOATTR in the FreeBSD CVS repo both for kernel use
and library use.  Here's the text I'm currently using:

#define ENOATTR         87              /* Attribute not found */
...
   "Attribute not found",                  /* 87 - ENOATTR */

While the numeric constant can and will be different on different
platforms, error message and constant name consistency is important.  Is
this the text used on other platforms, and if not, what is the preferred
route?  I'd like to get this into place in the 4.0-STABLE branch of
FreeBSD before the upcoming FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE.

Thanks!
