No.
work/ada/src/kernel/kernel-linux_i86.ads
[...]
   EAGAIN          : constant error_code :=  11; -- Try again
[...]
   EWOULDBLOCK     : constant error_code :=  41; --  is now EAGAIN

You never know which code the kernel will return.

But you are right on this:
   ECHILD          : constant error_code :=  10; -- No child processes
-- ECHLD           : constant error_code :=  ECHILD; -- Fucking typos
