Okay, sure.

The way I see it is: the kernel is will be left in a bad state in the
case of any failure, regardless of if we bail out or continue.  AFAICT,
there is no clean way to recover from a failure this early.

Given that, it seems simpler (albeit marginally so) just to continue; so
that's what I chose to do.  I'm not opposed to bailing out, just not
convinced it does anything for us.

Yes, I agree.  I'll also update the bindings documentation.

Thanks again,
