Has an interface like this already been considered?

    IGNORE_EXCEPTIONS (QUIET, RETURN_MASK_ERROR,
                       do stuff here);

IGNORE_EXCEPTIONS would be a macro that does the necessary setjmp magic,
with calls into top.c to reduce inline code size.

Advantages:
  - no need to implement and document wrapper functions
  - no need to check wrapper.h for longjmp-free versions
  - possibly smaller code size due to omission of wrapper functions,
    though the inline code could outweigh that effect

Anyway, I'll go ahead and change my patch to use wrapper.c; thanks for
pointing it out.
