The PEP 3151 introduced "specialized" subclasses of OSError. Antoine Pitrou conducted a survey to decide which errors are common enough to merit a builtin exception:
http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3151/#appendix-a-survey-of-common-errnos

ENOSPC is not mentionned in the PEP. According to 0002-Use-the-new-NoSpaceError.patch the error is rare: only used *once* in Python... and only in a very specific unit test (to workaround an issue on a specific buildbot...).

It looks like ENOSPC is available on Linux, Windows, FreeBSD and Mac OS X. It is part of the POSIX standad, ex:
