I would like to emphasize this summation by Andreas.

If a "check" function goes off on it's own rather than
returning the results to me, then it's not a "check" 
function, it's the equivilant of an "assert".

There may be a place for that -- and it may be useful
to have an API that explicitly says that this is what
it does -- but if the function says it returns a code
to me that I can make use of, that is exactly what I 
expect of it.
