 I thought the same, while creating this patch.
 However this patch has changed a lot and I didn't add any new error checking.
 (So, the same behavior will occur even if an error occurs)

 There is no new error checking for same reason as above.

 I'll try to add error checking to this v2 patch.
 Or is it better to add error checking in another patch?
