I don't think we can continue working after a p_err() call :S
Or p_info() for that matter.  Something else may call p_err() again and
we'll end up with multiple "error" members in JSON.

Could you return an error and make the callers fail where you do goto
exit_free?  The case there is no BTF is okay to return NULL, but other
cases should really not happen, and I think it's OK to just error out
completely.

nit: new line missing here and in another place
