Thanks,
I agree there seems to be a problem here. But perhaps it's nicer to solve
it by adding a default case to the switch statement?
Also, if we update the declaration of ret, perhaps we could also move it to
the bottom of the declaration of local variables, to move more towards
reverse xmas tree order.
But to be honest, I don't feel strongly about either of these issues.
So if someone wants to take this patch as-is then feel free to add.
