I'm not sure if this is a good change.
Where we have a function that returns an error via an Error ** it's
normal practice for us to return a bool to say whether it generated an
error.

Now, in our case we only call it with error_fatal:

    migration_object_check(current_migration, &error_fatal);

so the bool isn't used/checked.

So I'm a bit conflicted:

  a) Using error_fatal is the easiest way to handle this function
  b) Things taking Error ** normally do return a flag value
  c) But it's not used in this case.

Hmm.
