I see opportunities to improve affected function implementations another bit.

1. Exception handling is repeated a few times also according to memory allocation failures.
   How do you think about to use a corresponding label like “e_nomem”
   so that another bit of duplicate source code can be avoided?

2. Will development interests grow for the usage of a statement like “guard(mutex)(&sfp->mutex);”?
