   Heh, because it's my usual style. Too bad you don't like it... :-)

   I think it's well suited for the functions returning either 0 or a
(negative) error code. It's *if* (error < 0) that confuses me (as this
API can return positive numbers in case of success...

   OK, you're probably right... are you going to respin the series because
of Biju's comments?

   No, we are good enough without that; I'll consider doing a cleanup
when/if I have time. :-)
