One of the problems with using buildworld's and the like is that they don't try anything that should fail. (What I have in mind here are things like cross device links, symlink loops, operating files that you shouldn't be able to, filling the disk and checking you get an error...) It would be nice to go through the man (2) pages and look at the error code sections and write code that deliberately provokes as many errors as possible. David.
