If your current patch bombing is successful then it will, at least in the short term.

I prefer to stress the unwind path as that is the most important aspect of the error path. I have no interest in a prelonged debate about the naming of labels. As I pointed out its a spurious aspect of your change. If you wish me to Ack your change then please either drop that change or update it - as I already suggested.
