Can it helpful to add jump targets so that a bit of exception handling

OK, no problem, I will do it in the v2.
It seems that the software evolution will be continued with another
update suggestion like the following.

Can it matter to omit the word âpotentialâ from change descriptions
after you detected that specific function calls were missing
in if branches?

Oh, I find this issue through code review, I have no test environment
to trigger the error path, but I think it is better to release the resource
in the error path, so I use "potential" description.
