Why not exit if !nr_grefs? There's nothing useful for this function to do in that case.

Seems odd to test (err != 1) twice. I'd prefer:
if (err != 1) {
if (nr_grefs == 1)
break;
<fatal error exit>
}
Either that or simply break if err != 1 and then...

...add a check and fatal error exit here if nr_grefs != 1.

That's one more be->blkif. I think it's overdue to initialize a 'blkif' stack variable in this function and use that.
