It's much easier to use a helper function or (if that is impossible) a goto to
get specialized error handling.
This macro is in use everywhere inside Subversion and in many third party tools
using our libraries so I would recommend to not change it.
Another option is a file local macro that performs your specialized cleanup.
All those options are used in multiple places in our codebase.
