Yes, but that only happens for the cases where you want to always remove
them.

No, that was the case where we have something like:

Thing *foo(void)
{
    OtherThing *bar = g_new0(OtherThing, 1)

    if (whatever) {
        goto error;
    }
    if (whatever_else) {
        goto error;
    }
    return bar;
error:
    g_free(bad);
    return NULL;
}

See, we have to put the goto because we have to free it in all error
paths.  Not in the non-error path.

If it is a pure local variable, i.e. never used after the function
finishes, then g_autoptr is the right thing to do.

Later, Juan.
