DESCRIPTION
     The catopen() function opens the message catalog specified by name and
     returns a message catalog descriptor.  If name contains a '/' then name
     specifies the full pathname for the message catalog, otherwise the value

     The oflag argument is reserved for future use and should be set to zero.

     descriptor.  Otherwise, (nl_catd) -1 is returned and errno is set to
     indicate the error.

ERRORS
     [ENOMEM]           Insufficient memory is available.
