Is that really useful? I think the current code reads easier, with the
usual pattern of setting the error code and the goto'ing out.
Now there is one rather opaque label it goes to, so a reader doesn't see
the error code immediately. And it really just saves one line per case
here. Plus the added danger that future changes might break this again.

And then there is the oddity that it jumps *into* an "if" branch, which
looks odd, I think typically we goto the end of the function, outside of
any other statements.

Cheers,
Andre
