Subject: Fix some issues with nice().  SUSv3 specifies that it return the new
 priority if successful, while the linux syscall returns 0.  Also, in the
 non-syscall version, we must be sure to set errno to EPERM on failure since
 setpriority() can set errno to several possible values. Note: The version of
 glibc on my debian system is broken wrt EPERM too.
