Try looking up 117 in /usr/include/sys/errno.h (or /usr/include/errno.h).
There's a chance that it will be a meaningful network-related error.
If it isn't that, then the problem is GLS-related (which a 7.1 to 7.2
engine change makes more likely). Somehow, something isn't picking up the
GLS locale stuff correctly.
