It may happen to be so with today's code, but for the health of the
code in the longer term, I do not think this patch is a good idea.
We may add more "check error and jump to the label to clean it up"
exit paths to these functions, and change to add such exit paths
would essentially need to revert this change.

By the way, I do not know if this is something GGG end-users can
fix, or requires a fix in GGG itself, but somebody keeps adding an
e-mail address in the @users.noreply.github.com domain to the Cc:
field of these patches.  For folks whose work is GitHub only, it
might be fine to declare "this user only has e-mail-address-looking
string but does not receive e-mail at all", but as working with GGG
is all about following e-mail based workflow, such an address should
be added to patch e-mails sent to the list this say.

Thanks.
