    So do we not want close functions to do grub_error() at all?  Seems like
    there may be some cases where we want to know there was an error closing
    a tcp socket or the initrd?  Maybe not, just want to make sure before I
    go make these two functions void.

How can a failure occur in close routines? What can we do with the
failure anyway?

So sending the FIN packet for the tcp close was failing for example. I don't think we can do anything really, I just don't like doing a patch 4 times, so I want to make sure turning these close functions into void's is ok. Thanks,

Josef
