Silly local vars. Just use req->exit_code everywhere instead.

Such tests are done under the variable which is assigned, not randomly.

Also, what's the point in testing req? Will that ever be NULL? What are
you actually protecting against here?

So we call the request everywhere "req". But you've called it
"guest_req" here because...

... there already is a "req" variable which is not a guest request thing
but a guest message. So why don't you call it "req_msg" instead and the
"resp" "resp_msg" so that it is clear what is what?

And then you can call the actual request var "req" and then the code
becomes more readable...

...

You have the same issue here.

If we aim at calling the local vars in every function the same, the code
becomes automatically much more readable.

And so on...
