I'd suggest to do this without the pp_alloc_flag variable, by pulling the store_path() call into the if (!pp) conditional and treating failure differently in both branches of the conditional. (Side note: if we introduce a boolean like this, we should use "bool" as the variable type). Unless you object, I'll add that change on top of my submit-2007 series, giving you appropriate credits. @Ben, @Christophe: I've been considering for some time to start handling cases like this with __attribute__((cleanup(f)))) ( https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Common-Variable-Attributes.html). That could reduce the amount of goto clauses for error handling significantly. It would be a major change in coding style though. What do you think?
