if it can be recovered from it's not fatal, therefore G_fatal_error() wasn't
appropriate to use in the first place.

perhaps you want a near-clone called G_nonfatal_error() which does the
same without the exit()? but is that just a semantics game between the
definition of what is a "warning" and what it means to be an "error"?


I would not be a fan of library-specific error handling anyway, make what-
ever solution available for all from libgis.


what's the practical use case you've found which could use it?
