I think it's a good idea to output the errno together with it's string 
in TEST_ASSERT,
it will explicitly indicate that the string is an error information and 
the errno is much
easier to be used for debugging than the string. I will make this change 
a separate
patch in next version and add your S-b tag.

This makes senses. But it should be %ld corresponding to size_t.

Thanks,
Yanan.
