Couldn't reproduce this and the reporter provided no details after several months … so closing.

The code for generating posix domain errors already uses strerror to generate the localised description … so the cause of any issue here is non-obvious.
Could you please provide a testcase to reproduce the problem.

-[NSError description] for NSPOSIXErrorDomain errors currently returns something like:

    NSPOSIXErrorDomain 97

It really ought use strerror, and return (in this example)

    Address family not supported by protocol
