    /*
     *   This is an example of using mrd_test_unit_ready(3mrd)
     *   to see if a media changer will accept commands.   On
     *   Digital UNIX this particular example will always
     *   succeed whether the robot is ready or not.  See the
     *   Restrictions section of the manual page for more
     *   information.
     *
     *   Usage:
     *

     *      a SCSI Request Sense data or equivalent.
     *

     *      the os_status field is set.  Where possible an MRD error
     *      will be set if one corresponds to the error.  If not, the
     *      MRD status will be MRD_STATUS_OS_ERROR.  The os_status
     *      is the error specific to the operating system.  On Digital
     *      UNIX it is an errno value.  On OpenVMS it is a system
     *      service return value.
     *
     *   o  MRD Errors - The MRD error code is set explicitly.
