Hi Xiu Jianfeng,

Thanks for the patch, but since you are fixing the error handling in
policydb_load_isids(), would you mind respinning this patch to get rid
of the "out" label and just have all of the associated callers return
directly instead?  I generally dislike jump targets that do nothing
else other than return a value; those 'goto X;' statements can easily
be converted into 'return Y;' statements.

Thanks.
