Well, I can create a new "error:" label that just does this:


 success:
   ret = 0;
 cleanup:
   /* blah blah */
   return ret;

 error:
   goto cleanup;

I do really want an explicit error: label, but also understand why you
don't want a successful exit to go past a label named "error".

respin coming up.
