Fixes #714

 # Fixed
 - Fix compilation and tests for OpenBSD targets
   ([#688](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/688))
+- Fixed error handling in `AioCb::fsync`, `AioCb::read`, and `AioCb::write`.
+  It is no longer an error to drop an `AioCb` that failed to enqueue in the OS.

 - The syscall module has been removed. This only exposed enough functionality for
